Let's all be completely honest and practical.

Applying to College
181

<p>So, do colleges only see the final semester, and not individual quarter grades? Also, for an Ivy League school, do As, Bs and one C for the last semester --> rescind?</p>

182

<p>Colleges see the grades you send them....also, it depends on the school district which grades are "seen". In the school where I work, we are on a block system. Quarter grades are not shown on transcripts unless it was a quarter class. Grades are posted to the transcript only when the class is finished.</p>

183

<p>never heard of it happening to anyone in my school.....</p>

184

<p>How much evidence do you need? Individual reports, newspaper stories, etc., isn't enough for you?</p>

<p>You can argue it doesn't happen as often as some people think -- if that's even worth arguing about -- but to call it a myth is just idiotic.</p>

185

<p>I am an admissions counselor at a moderately selective school and I have personally rescinded admissions. It is not a myth.</p>

186

<p>I know this is off topic. Has any students that got rejection from the colleges ever get accepted? I kept on researching but did not get many results. =/ That's why I'm asking.</p>

187

<p>admisscouns...on what grounds were the students rescinded?</p>

188

<p>when you declare where youre going you have to sign a contract which spells out for you what will happen if you do this and that. for all ucs you need a 3.0 unweighted. thats the one i know</p>

189

<p>I got a D (first semester) in AP Calc AB, and I recently sent a letter to the colleges to which I applied informing them about it. Today I received an e-mail from UCSC (to which I got accepted) asking me to e-mail her all my grades from first semester and to list my current classes. It stated that my file needs to be sent to the Associate Director of Admissions for his review.</p>

<p>I replied with the requested information, but I am sort of worried. Is this kind of response (the e-mail I received) typical? As in, do they usually do this for all students who received grade below a C or did not get a 3.0 or above GPA, or just the questionable students? Some insight, please?</p>
