To prevent revoke - I need HELP -URGENT-

Applying to College
1

<p>I have until Monday.</p>

<p>my situation
I have 1 D (AP), 1 B, 1 C(AP), and 4-5 A's.</p>

<p>I'm attending Rutgers U for Engineering</p>

<p>That 1 D worried me a lot.
So I talked to my counselor and he wrote me a letter explaining that the 1 D doesn't explain my work ethics and such.</p>

<p>BUT.</p>

<p>he told me that the letter only brings attention to the admissions officer and should be used as a last resort if Rutgers decides to contact me. he also mentioned that 1 D should not really hurt me.</p>

<p>Because I'm leaving for the entire summer on Tuesday, I need a decision by Monday whether or not I want to send this letter.</p>

<p>Would I need to send this letter or is it unnecessary?</p>

<p>Is there any way to avoid this? In other words, is someone in your family staying home? Is there a friend who can help you? Is there any way to contact the post office and ask that the mail FROM Rutgers be sent to the counselor, so he’ll send the explanation if you get mail from the Uni?</p>

<p>I have a copy of the letter as well as my counselor.</p>

<p>My dad would be staying home so he could probably notify me if Rutgers ever contacts me or something.</p>

<p>My counselor has limited access to the Internet (for reasons unknown) but I think he can check during the mornings each day at school?</p>

<p>But yeah. He also has a copy and he told me to contact him if I get notified by Rutgers and either he or I can send it.</p>

<p>Okay, here’s what I would suggest (if you have phone/email):</p>

<p>Wait if mail comes. If it does, have your father call/email you the entire thing. Then discuss it with your counselor by phone/email, and he can send it in.</p>

<p>If you unfortunately do not have phone/email regularly, have your father talk to your counselor if the mail comes. I am sure that the two together will make the right decision.</p>

<p>Do you think I have high chances of hearing back from the college due to 1 D?</p>

6

<p>Which Rutgers is this? Newark, Camdem, or New Bru</p>

7

<p>it is New Brunswick</p>

<p>Follow these steps:</p>

<p>1) You call the school first, explain your situation
2) Have your father call next.
3) Have your counselor call third.</p>

<p>Proves you really want to go and want to prove yourself.</p>

<p>i cant see you getting revoked, for whats its worth.</p>

<p>i’d only send the letter if they say something. if they hint toward being revoked, i’d compromise, like asking if you can attend and be placed on academic probation for a semester or two. that being said, dont worry – you’ll be fine.</p>

<p>scared6378: That’s what I was thinking as well. Because my other grades are okay. But I just wondered if I need to send the LETTER or not :)</p>
