rescind?

<p>Let this show others that schools are serious when they say that they don’t want to see your grades slip. Bs are not ok.</p>

<p>Bs are OK, but of course if one has been a straight A student with Ivy stats and slips to all Bs in a semester, schools like Ivies will wonder if they made a mistake in admitting you.</p>

<p>If you do send a letter, make sure your grammar and spelling are correct. The errors you made in your post could convince Yale to rescind your admission because you seemingly can’t write at college level.</p>

<p>Thanks to all of you for the advice!! I sent the letter detailing the circumstances at the time and put that this isn’t what they should expect from me at Yale, that I am receiving advice from current collge students in a seminar, etc etc. I really hope this works.</p>

<p>I would be surprised if you got more than an academic probation but I have known of a rescinded acceptance for plagiarism as a second semester senior. Yale will certainly not think a GPA drop is acceptable because you chilled out your second semester. The coursework will be so much more challenging in college that if you needed intense effort to keep your straight A’s, then you will not likely handle the workload at Yale. Aside from the interest generated by taking a class with a multitude of EC’s, this is one good way for the school to see you have enough free time in your schedule while getting your A’s to handle the additional workload in college. The next time someone sends you an admission offer/job offer/etc. contingent on continued performance at the same level, you had better take that stipulation more seriously. Good luck.</p>
