Senior year GRADES!

Hi again, I have upheld all As and A-s my entire high school career but am afraid that I might end up with a few B+s on my first semester senior year transcript. Will this severely affect my admission chances if I am dipping not even a full grade down? I am applying to schools like UCLA, NYU, Northeastern, Santa Clara, UW, etc.

For the most part, probably not. I assume you’ve checked that your parents are willing to pay the OOS school costs for each?

@“Erin’s Dad” I live in California so UCLA and Santa Clara would be preferable, but yes, they are.

Rule of Thumb: No D’s or F’s Senior year. More than 2 C’s for UCLA may be an issue.

@Gumbymom Thanks!
