UC Policy for D's that you will make up during Senior year?

Applying to College
1

<p>Hi,</p>

<p>Last year, I got a D in Pre-Cal, AP calc ab, and english 3. It was Junior year. I was unable to make them up over the summer or first semester of my Senior year. I will be making up English 3 this second semester. I applied to the uc's in November. Since the ucs make their decisions before they get second semester grades, does my d automatically count me out for admission? I know ucs dont like d's, especially for a-g requirements. How would they treat me and my application in respect to that d? Would they make their decision solely on that d as a red flag indicator, regardless of my plan to redo the class?</p>

<p>(if further information is needed about my transcript, gpa, ec's, etc, I can post)</p>

<p>Your UC GPA is 3.04 according to your chances thread…the UC statfinder website indicates that 2% of candidates with that GPA were admitted in the last reported admissions cycle.</p>

<p>I mean, in general, though. Will a D disqualify anyone automatically, given the circumstance that they can only make the class up during second semester of their Senior year?</p>

<p>UC admissions are based on the 10th and 11th grade GPA, weighted and capped according to the UC formula. It would be hard to have a competitive GPA with a D in an academic class during that time. The possibility of making up the class second semester senior year doesn’t matter for admissions decisions that occur mid-year.</p>
