<p>"acceptance rescinded
how bad do your grades have to drop to get your admission taken away from the UW?</p>
<p>if i have like a 3.87 gpa, already been accepted, but get a D and a C (both in Ap/honor classes, rest are A's) and end with a semester gpa of like 3.28, can i get my admission taken away?"</p>
<p>And I'm a dumbass? That is probably one of the stupidest questions I have ever seen. You obviously have no common sense. You should leave this site in shame...</p>
<p>Yeah, I didn't read Isleboy's page long post, but I can tell you that if you don't stop taking ad homonym attacks at each other this thread will be closed.</p>
<p>Hmmm...</p>
<p>I did not attack the OP...I just stated my opinion.</p>
<p>As for the thread closing....why would someone want to do that?</p>
<p>I can see the humor in Omni's comment about my reflections being unsavory to an extent. It goes against what some others think of the UC system, as well as public universities as well.</p>
<p>Thanks for not reading my post Shark. Glad to know my view is appreciated. :)</p>
<p>Just kidding.

<p>sorry that my life doesn't revolve around college admissions and i don't know everything about it. maybe i should start ranking colleges to make myself feel better.</p>
<p>First Class:[list=0]
[<em>]UCB
[</em>]Virginia
[<em>]Michigan
[</em>]UCLA
[<em>]UNC-Chapel Hill
[/list]
Second Class:[list=0]
[li]UW-Madison[/li][</em>]UCSD
[<em>]UT-Austin
[</em>]UIUC
[li]William and Mary[/li][/list]</p>
<p>i wouldnt put unc in a different level than wisonsin or ucsd. the first four, berkeley, virginia, michigan, ucla, are a step ahead. i dont know if texas and illinois belong with william and mary, wisconsin, and ucsd for overall academics, that seems like a stretch.</p>
<p>group 1:</p>
<p>uc berkeley
virginia
michigan
ucla</p>
<p>group 2:</p>
<p>unc
ucsd
william and mary
wisconsin</p>
<p>group 3:</p>
<p>uiuc
washington
texas
uci</p>
<p>Calm down T....You're showing me that I'm getting to you... I'm sure your life doesn't revolve around college admissions, thats why you only posted on this site 101 times since December of last year.</p>
<p>I'm not even going to start ranking these universities. Many of them are fantastic and have great things to offer, academically and otherwise. I just want to say that if you're considering state universities for undergrad, make sure to look at rankings for all the majors in which you're possibly interested and then apply. Strength of program is incredibly important for undergrad state programs because it's reflective of the attention, funding, classes and research opportunities you will actually receive at the university. Schools and departments within state schools tend to vary wildly in terms of how they treat undergrads. They're also a lot less forgiving of indecision and a lot more difficult about accommodating individual needs. I wouldn't even recommend applying to any aside from your own state school unless you have a definite course of study in mind.</p>
<p>The best state school is the one your state supports. Some are better than others, but it's a nice feeling that 20 years of paying property taxes can lead to a solid public education.</p>
<p>how did you not put maryland on this list</p>
<p>Wow, bumping up a post made a month ago, way to go.</p>
<p>I think everyone is a little biased... so i'll jump the bandwagon</p>
<p>TIER 1
-UCI
-CAL</p>
<p>TIER LAST
ALL THE REST</p>
<p>I don't think Tennessee is a 4th class school. I guess that is a matter of opinion.</p>
<p>A lot of bias in these threads, but let me just say this website is hillarious in an attempt to compare William and Mary to UCLA and UNC to Michigan, or hell Wisconsin to Michigan.</p>
<p>Either totally different or splitting hairs. Notice on thing though ... it almost ALWAYS comes down to the US News.</p>
<p>UCSD is definitely first class with berkeley and UCLA. The only reason why some people think its not is because of it not having very strong athletic teams...</p>
<p>Uhh...not really. Academically it's not quite there yet. There's still quite a gap in terms of selectivity, student qualifications, yield, professor quality, etc. etc. It's got some strong departments, but I'm not sure if bio-engineering justifies putting it up there with UCLA and UCB.</p>
<p>William & Mary is the most selective public university. US News, however, continues to diminish the selectivity factor of certain state supported schools with subjective criteria like "peer assessments." Most of these so-called "peers" are petrified academics at other schools who live in libraries. What do they know?</p>
<p>
I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not... :rolleyes:</p>
