<p>Ok, so I've searched this topic but couldn't find an answer ...</p>
<p>The withdraw date has already passed, and I am sitting at a D for a 5 unit Chem class right now. I do plan on retaking the class (not this fall) in the spring. The class is already full for the fall though I just added myself to the wait list.</p>
<p>The problem is I won't have an updated grade after I retake the class until applications are already sent. Am I pretty much screwed from getting into a CSU or UC? I am on the Dean's list with a 3.3 GPA though after this class... my GPA will plummet to 3.0.</p>
<p>If I manage to add the class in the fall, will the grade from the fall semester make it on time when the applications are evaluated?</p>
<p>Academic renewal is not an option since I cannot waste a year to get this off my record and am ready to apply this fall.</p>
