Revoking Policy

<p>Hey everybody,</p>

<p>I just wanted to know what the general policy was for in terms of revoking.</p>

<p>This semester, I'm taking AP Chemistry, AP Calculus AB, AP English Literature and Journalism news. Next semester, I'm taking World History II, AP Chemistry, AP Calculus and Journalism News.</p>

<p>What happens if I get one B this semester, and one the next (2 total this year, 1 each semster). What happens if I get one B this semester, and two the next?</p>

<p>Michigan, like any other university, reserves the right to rescind any acceptance, within reason. But I stress "within reason". Michigan isn't going to revoke an acceptance as long as the student's GPA remains over 3.0. In most cases, if a student's GPA drops to an unacceptable low (under 3.0), the University will place the student on probation rather than rescind the offer. However, it is best to avoid that situation because the probation will go on your permanent record. Just keep your GPA as far above 3.0 and you will be fine.</p>

<p>I asked this same question about a week ago and i was told that they will only revoke it if you get 2 C's or a D or E.</p>

<p>an E???? Do schools really give E's??</p>

<p>yes... they do</p>

<p>will they really revoke for 2 Cs ????? What if someone gets 2 Cs but keeps their GPA above a 3.0???</p>

<p>I think that Michigan will revoke an acceptance for a student with 2 Cs and a bunch of Bs and As only under very specific circumstances. Maybe a student admitted into the CoE and the two Cs are in Physics and Math. But otherwise, I cannot imagine Michigan revoking an acceptance in the case of a student who gets over a 3.0 GPA (as measured by Michigan), even if they should have a C or two. But why chance it? There is no excuse for a 3.7+ student to drop below the 3.5 mark. I realize it is senior year and all, but one can ease up a little without completely letting loose!</p>

<p>what exactly is probation? if ur put on it what happens?</p>

<p>I think the university basically watches you for a year.</p>

<p>You have to meet with your counselor or something and discuss your academic progress and all that.</p>

<p>You simply don't get to enjoy the freedom you get as a college student until you're a sophomore.</p>

<p>your acceptance is definately not going to get revoked for getting 1 or 2 Bs.</p>

<p>actually, my friend received notification that her offer was going to be revoked last year. she had received two Bs instead of normal As in the 3rd quarter. My school had to write a long letter to UMich. Our guidence counsleurs often use this as an example to make sure we don't slack off.</p>

<p>Is jgotsmiles' story really a possibility? Possibly a moderator could provide some more concrete information.</p>

<p>I have never heard of a case where an acceptance was rescinded for a student getting Bs. I haven't even heard of Michigan revoking and acceptance in the case of a student that got a couple of Cs so long as the total GPA remained well above the 3.0. However, that's from personal experience. I cannot confirm or deny jgotsmiles' case. It could happen under some circumstances. Like I said, taking it easy is one thing, letting loose is another. It is ok if one's GPA drops by two 10th of a point. But a free-falling GPA will raise all sorts of red flags.</p>

<p>I know I've gotten a couple Bs during my high school career and was admitted, so I can't see why one or two in the senior year would change that...</p>

<p>doubt whatever you want, but apparently the school sends you a warning letter.</p>

<p>but it might have been different because she was a preferred admitt candidate</p>

<p>Hey I have a question. </p>

<p>When does Michigan typically send out these letters that threaten to deny an applicant? They do this when they get the final transcript right? Isnt that after graduation?</p>

<p>Doesn't it seem like it's harsh to deny an applicant over the summer after enrolling to Michigan?</p>

<p>...what if I happen to get a D in the subject thats been my worst, according to my transcript? Midterm grades weren't so hot. :-(</p>

<p>I wonder about this too....I got a C on a midterm</p>

<p>midterms dont usually appear on transcripts which are sent to universities (or at least thats the case at my school)</p>
