<p>My overall GPA so far is a 2.8 but my current GPA first semester is a 2.5 right now so I'm a little bit worried that a slight dip in my GPA will result in my admission being rescinded. Also, I'm receiving a F in Pre-Calculus right now but I'm working to get that up to a C! Will one D or F result in me being rescinded? Is it rare to have your admission revoked? Please help and thank you!</p>
<p>Does the admission offer have any conditions listed that you have to meet to avoid being rescinded? D or F grades are usually a bad thing.</p>
<p>The admission offer just says your admission is contingent upon completing your courses this year with passing grades and an appropriate GPA!</p>
<p>Well an F is not a passing grade so it sounds like that could very well get you rescinded. Are you just not bothering to do any work?</p>
<p>No, I got off to a slow start by failing the quizzes and test so I’m trying to improve my grade from an F to a C! Do colleges check quarter grades?</p>
<p>Even if they did, they wouldn’t make any decisions off of them. If you keep your grades In your other classes up and you stay after school with your pre-calc teacher for some extra help, you should be fine.</p>
<p>Any other tips, guys?</p>
<p>There aren’t any other tips to be had. Ole Miss has already told you exactly what you need to do - pass all of the classes in which you are already enrolled, and don’t let your GPA fall too far. If you maintain your GPA at or very close to a 2.8 and don’t fail any classes, you should be fine. And yes, getting your admission rescinded (as YOU, as a person, cannot “get rescinded”) is uncommon.</p>
<p>So basically I need to get all C’s or above both semesters?</p>
<p>"So basically I need to get all C’s or above both semesters? " Ummmm yeah. You’re intending to be a college student sometime soon, right?</p>
<p>Ole Miss isn’t asking to much of you, is it? If I may ask, what grades do you expect to make while in college? Time to do some thinking if you want to barely pass your college. You’re certainly not guaranteed to graduate college, you know.</p>
<p>And it’s not rare to be rescinded. Ds and Fs are rather the key signs of that happening.</p>
<p>If I may: you think it’ll be hard to change that D/F in PreCalc to a passing grade? Sure. Then think how hard it’ll be to tell your family that Ole Miss withdrew its offer because you didn’t do everything in your power, while you still had the chance, to avert that outcome. Please, put everything (and I mean everything) aside and get those grades up. None of that senior fun stuff means a single thing. Let those apes have their fun. You need to man up and avoid the Ds and Fs. If you don’t, and choose to go forth “just hoping for the best” then your family has my sympathy.</p>
<p>Yeah I’m trying to!</p>
<p>Bump 10 char</p>
<p>Unless they request semester (mid-year) grades, they will most likely evaluate you based on your final report card grade.</p>
<p>I don’t think they will but I still need to get my grades up this semester!</p>
<p>Have you guys ever heard of anyone getting rescinded with multiple C’s, or 1 D?</p>
<p>Anybody please?</p>
<p>bezan: Ole miss is completely within its rights to withdraw an offer to a student whose senior year grades were all Cs and on D (with a previous culm GPA of 2.8). Frankly, you should act as if the D is the kiss of death and proceed to avoid it accordingly.</p>
<p>There are no “tips”, all you have to do is get half decent grades.</p>
<p>I know! The only class I’m having trouble with is Pre-calculus, which I have a whole semester to bring up! Do colleges make decisions based on both semesters or only second semester?</p>
<p>Yes, I do know one student who received a letter asking him to submit reasons why the university he was to attend should not rescind his admission after he received a D. He got the letter in mid-June, weeks after his graduation and about 8 weeks before he expected to move into his freshman dorm.</p>
<p>To summarize, yes, people can and do get rescinded for earning a D their senior year in high school. Colleges don’t want to take freshmen who can’t (or won’t) do the work.</p>
