<p>i read the following condition today:</p>

<p>"Complete all senior-year courses listed on your application with an overall unweighted B average for each term and no grade lower than a C. Immediately notify us, in writing: if you did not meet the grade point average condition for any term of your senior year; or of any changes to your senior year class schedule."</p>

<p>unfortunately, i got a D in english ap for 1st semester senior year. what exactly do they want me to write in the letter?</p>

<p>do you know anyone who had their admission revoked DESPITE the fact that they notified the office before the deadline? this is the only thing keeping me from submitting my SIR. i don't want to register, enroll, and then enter my dorm, only to get dismissed from the school (i heard that happened to lots of people)</p>

<p>is it truly ok as long as i notify them with a letter? or will they review my application again and decide whether to let it go or not?</p>

<p>Well e-mail them asap because they might give you a chance. They gave me a second chance but I failed AP calc and that isn’t a required course and english is. But the best thing to do is to tell them asap. Good luck! Btw I have to maintain a 3.5 unweighted GPA for this last semester. I submitted my SIR last week.</p>

3

<p>there is a 90% chance that you will not go to berkeley.<br>
sorry.</p>

<p>Just a question: Wouldn’t the admissions office have already seen that first semester grade when the OP’s HS sent in the mid-year report? If so, why would they admit someone if they knew that, unless they didn’t care about the D?</p>

5

<p>UCs do not ask for mid-year reports. Senior year transcripts are turned after one submit their SIR.</p>

6

<p>Nevermind then. Sorry OP, it looks like you’ll have to fight this one out and hope for the best.</p>

7

<p>Definitely contact the admissions office asap. But the chances do look slim, especially due to the shear size of the incoming class this year.</p>

8

<p>Does you English teacher have a rule that if you get a certain score on the AP test that they bump your grades? that could save you</p>

<p>I faxed them a signed letter saying that I had No excuse and had senioritis. They emailed me back like two days later and asked what grades I received this whole senior year up until this point. Then they said that my admission wouldnt be revoked If I maintain a 3.5 gpa this last semester and it’s strongly recommended that I take calculus at a local comm college. But yeah hope everything goes well and keep me posted. I couldn’t email u for some reason and btw I’m on my iPod Which is why i have so many errors cause Im too lazy to go back This keyboard is lame LOL but again good luck ps I lied I just went back and fixed the errors lmao : )</p>

10

<p>what grades have you been getting besides the class you were failing/failed, if you dont mind me asking.</p>

11

<p>Notify them ASAP or else you have no chance at all. i was in same boat. and now im still here.</p>

12

<p>Try to bump up the English grade for this semester. If you can, they may decide that you have learned from your mistake and can admit you. But notify them ASAP.</p>

13

<p>Best of luck, it’s never good to hear stuff like this happening. </p>

<p>Are there any official stats on how many people actually get their admissions revoked from Berkeley every year?</p>

14

<p>I got my admission to Berkeley revoked for failing to take a biology course to fullfill IGETC the spring semester prior to transferring and had to reapply.</p>

15

<p>^so you waited a year to reapply? or did you go somewhere else?</p>

16

<p>Revokes are never a good thing to hear. </p>

<p>It’s different standards for transfers…so keep that in mind.</p>

<p>I wish you the best of luck! [:</p>
