<p>Will they revoke my admission, getting D's both session in trig? however gpa still over 3.2
sent them a letter, but no respond yet.</p>
<p>Im a little bit scared because everybody whose gotten their admission revoked seemed to be having D's in trig.</p>
<p>btw. anybody whose having the same kind of problem?</p>
<p>At catholic school in oakland it was a d in physics that did the student in.</p>
<p>Not to scare you but the chances are pretty high. The reason why is because UCSC's goal was to get 3700 incoming freshmen for the '07-'08 year. Instead they got 4000...so, BEST OF LUCK TO YOU.</p>
<p>Source: My friend is in the same situation as you and he's just waiting to see what will happen. However he has taken precautionary steps by enrolling into a CC.</p>
<p>thx for letting me know, ima get a response probly later today or tomorrow. Ill post the final outcome..</p>
<p>Good Luck!!</p>
<p>So.... outcome?</p>
<p>BTW, if there is a chance that you might get a D in a class, how exactly do you let them know? </p>
<p>Does it have to be a long, formal, (begging not to be rejected), written letter, or can it be a simple email that says, "Hello. My name is (insert name), and I might get a D in (insert subject here). Just thought you might like to know. Thank you for your time."</p>
<p>^"Might" get a D? As in you don't know your second semester grade yet and you think you could get a D? I might be wrong, but sending a letter now doesn't seem like it would do much. It seems a bit late since they will receive your final transcript very soon anyway. I don't have personal experience with this, though.</p>
<p>To OP: You got a D in first semester as well? Did you call/send a letter to inform them and to explain it?</p>
<p>No, I heard it's a good idea to notify a college ASAP. Google it.</p>
<p>Deadgiveaway: Long story short, my teacher didn't discuss grades with me (he is kind of an odd character), so I don't really know what I ended up with (at least I am on his good side). If I do get a D, it will be because of a very stupid reason.</p>
<p>That sucks, but hopefully you didn't end with a D. Some teachers are more lenient with seniors regarding second semester grades?</p>
<p>And yeah, I know it's better to notify the college rather than not, but since it's pretty late and you're not even sure whether you got the D, I don't know how you're going to approach it o_O If you do send a letter though, provide a reason instead of simply stating the grade you received (or in your case.. might receive). That's what I was told by a lot of people, and that's what I did with my first semester D in Calc AB.</p>
<p>Yea, sorry about not posting the final outcome. Funny story.. i have not recieved an email from admission office yet.
Its because i guess, ucsc havn't reach their final decision yet. of Either Rescind my Admission, or Accepting me. Because i checked my My.ucsc.edu account and my Admission status, went from HEY CONGRATS COOL GUY! You'VE BEEN ACCEPTED. to.... (Blank. No comment. No Really.. We have no comment.). but yea..i really hope they accept me.</p>
<p>In the recent weeks i developed conpulsive email checking disorder. about 15 times a day, and i fear its getting worst. today 15 times -tomorrow 50? hehe.</p>
<p>Good luck, Jopham916.</p>
<p>How long ago did you send the email? You could always follow up with a telephone call; things like that might get lost at a big university. That said, they can't make their final decision until they get your transcript. To do otherwise would be mean.</p>
<p>i sent it 3 weeks ago, i will call them today</p>
<p>Good Luck!!!</p>
<p>Hello everybody. It's me again. It's been a stressful month or two. but it finally ended.
So, this is probly my last post.. unless miricales do happen.</p>
<p>Today.. i came home and checked my Admission status.
Hoping to find good news. i recieved the opposite.</p>
<p>"Your offer of admission has been cancelled for failure to meet your conditions of admission. A letter to this effect has been sent to your current mailing address. "</p>
<p>=( ...... what a great way to start the july 4th. </p>
<p>well. at least i am giving my cowell dorm to a more qualified person........</p>
<p>And so i dont think i can appeal the process no? maybe meeting up with the evaluators and explain myself in person?</p>
<p>aww nooo! ask them if you can take summer classes to make it up??</p>
<p>I think you should not give up yet. If your school counselors are still at school.. you can ask them for help for your appeal process. Show ucsc that you are going to attend a cc class to fix your grade. You still have a chance, because I am sure that ucsc is slaughtering a lot of people off of the admissions list and they can make room for you. If you show them that you really really really want to go.. then you might have a chance. Thoroughly explain your situation in a letter mailed to the ucsc president or a higher authority. Good luck</p>
<p>to Jopham:</p>
<p>When you get your letter in the mail, at the bottom will be the director's name (i think it was Michael McCawley something like that) and there will be phone number to the admission office for you to call if you have any questions. Call that number and ask to speak to the director. You will most likely have to make an appointment with him. When you do have a chance to speak with him, explain to him your situation. Were there any negative circumstances that affected your grade? Will taking summer classes help? Is there any way to still attend UCSC but under academic probation? </p>
<p>He's a pretty nice guy and really sympathetic, however he has <em>never</em> overturned his decision to rescind somebody. Your chances of successfully appealing are pretty slim. However it doesn't hurt to give it a shot and see what happenes. </p>
<p>In the mean time there are lots of options for you to look at. Many community colleges have agreements with UCs so that if you get a specific GPA with a certain number of units then you are guranteed admission to that UC campus. Also there might be a few UCs and some state colleges that under-enrolled and if you speak with them directly they might give you a spot at there school. </p>
<p>I went with the community college option because you have a second shot at the UCs. You start off with a clean slate and I heard its actually easier to get into more competitive UCs as a community college transfer than straight from high school.</p>
<p>So best of luck to you. I hope everything works out for the best.</p>
