Rescinded from FSU?

[Bret20]

<p>Hey guys and gals, my name is Bret and I'm new here. </p>

<p>I was accepted to FSU earlier this year and I'm now worrying that I will have my admission revoked. I was wondering what you all thought. </p>

<p>I got accepted with a 3.55 weighted GPA for my first 3 years and a 1130 on the SAT. </p>

<p>1st semester of this year I did well and raised my overall GPA to a 3.6 flat. I got an "A" in AP Gov and a "B" in AP Human Geo, my only 2 AP classes. And got no grades below a "C". </p>

<p>This final semester my grades have dipped. 3rd quarter my GPA was a 3.35 and I got a "D" in chemistry. </p>

<p>I will probably get the same for the 4th quarter. </p>

<p>Now during the first semester I was worried about getting a "D" so I spoke to an admissions officer at FSU and was told that since it was just Chemistry that I was struggling in that I should be alright. </p>

<p>But after getting that dreaded "D" 3rd quarter and knowing that I'm pretty much locked to get a "D" or "F" for the 2nd semester in there I called up FSU again just to follow up. This time a different admissions officer scared the hell out of me and told me there's a chance I could be revoked if my overall GPA that I was accepted with goes down after factoring in my senior grades. </p>

<p>What do you think? I figure my 1st and 2nd semester grades would cancel out and I'd be right where I was at 3.55 or so, but I'm very worried.</p>

<p>Thanks for any feedback.</p>

<p>I hope it goes well for you, but all acceptances from FSU (at least) are based on successful completion of the senior hs year and are not guaranteed. I suspect that what 'successful' means depends on how much pressure the university is under from kids for admission. </p>

<p>This will no doubt change every year, as admissions standards ebb and flow.</p>

<p>The difficulty of your course work will probably influence the impact of lower grades, e.g. a 'D' in a hard course is better than a 'D' in an easy one.</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>
