What are my chances of UCLA rescinding admission?

<p>Hi, I got accepted for business econ to UCLA for fall 08.</p>

<p>I was wondering what you guys think my chances of UCLA rescinding my admission is if I get a C for my final semester? I've never gotten a C before, but I'm afraid my grade in Calculus 2 this semester might drop.</p>

<p>Here are my stats
GPA: 3.65 (currently, 3.7 during application)
TAP certified
ECs: a lot</p>

<p>PREDICTED final semester grades:
Accounting- A/B
History- A
Humanities- A
Calculus- C?</p>

<p>Short version of my question:
Would getting a C during my final semester before transferring get my admission to UCLA rescinded? Thank you.</p>

<p>I'm very sure it wouldn't affect your admission :)
Stop worrying!</p>

<p>Just checking this as well.</p>

<p>Would this grade set up result with an application withdrawl?</p>

<p>3 units - A
3 units - B
3 units - B
3 units - C
1.5 units C</p>

<p>i believe it comes out to be a 2.8 GPA... overall GPA is 3.5</p>

4

<p>It comes out to 2.89 if you take into consideration unit weighting.</p>

5

<p>lol, ok, 2.89. but that's still below 3.0 apparently, that's some magic number that we all need to stay above.</p>

<p>congrats on Cal, btw!</p>

6

<p>For what it's worth, the report changes site says to report if you get a D, an F or 3 or more Cs</p>

<p>I'm really worried about my admission. </p>

<p>Right now, I think I might get a D or F in my class (which by the way, has absolutely nothing to do with my major) I'm just taking it to learn some new things. </p>

<p>The thing is, I'm taking it Credit/ No credit. So, if I do get a D or F, I'll end up with a no credit. Which is pretty much like FAIL in Pass/Fail. </p>

<p>Would that affect my admission? On one hand I'm really worried because it's a fail. but since it wouldn't affect my GPA at all, I wonder how that would work.</p>

8

<p>Does the class fulfill your IGETC, 60 unit req or anything like that? Is there any way you can salvage the grade?</p>

9

<p>Well, basically I can say that the class is purely useless in terms of IGETC or any requirements. I only took it for self-learning purposes. It's an art class by the way. But I never counted on my art being quite so terrible, and the teacher is really strict on grading. </p>

<p>I should have dropped the class when I had a chance too. It's too late now. </p>

<p>I'm trying to salvage my grade as it is, but it's really hard. But I'd hate to think that I wasted 2.5 years of efforts getting my 3.98 GPA to get rescinded over an art class that I failed. That would be really ... terrible.</p>

10

<p>I think if you do get rescinded, you've got a good chance of getting it turned over if you fight it</p>

11

<p>im terrified also</p>

<p>my predicted grades:
4 unit (bio) - A
4 unit (calc) - C
3 unit (psych) - B
3 unit (psych) - C (different psych)
3 unit (sociology) - B</p>

<p>biz econ major sh177ing bricks, i applied w/ a 3.85</p>

12

<p>same. </p>

<p>1 unit- A
1 unit - B
5 Unit- C
4 UNit- B+
4 Unit- B+</p>

<p>sub 3 gpa. Got in with 3.6 Econ major.
That was winter quarter, currently on Spring quarter. (my school ends laaate)</p>

13

<p>Honestly, I wouldn't worry about it unless you get a D or an F. Someone I knew screwed around during her last semester at CC and got like C's in most of her classes. I think they just ultimately put her on academic probation for her first quarter at UCLA. </p>

<p>Think of it this way: Do you really think they are going to rescind that many applications and lose all that expected tuition money for each and every person who gets a C? Doubtful considering the fact that a large percentage of people leave their hard classes until their last CC semester and are likely to get more C's than normal. Don't stress...just do the best you can. :)</p>

14

<p>My predicted Spring gpa is 4.0. I don't know what everyone's smoking. Or perhaps it's the STD--spring transferitis disease.</p>

15

<p>I'm also worried about my offer being rescinded. </p>

<p>The GPA on my application was a 3.55 and it will likely drop to about a 3.45 overall after this semester, as my GPA for this semester will be around a 2.75.</p>

<p>My grades will probabaly be:
Political Thinking - C
International Politics - B
History - B
Econ - B</p>

<p>My biggest worry is that UCLA admissions will rescind because I'm a pre-polisci major and my C is in a course for my major. Furthermore, the course I'll get a C in is one of the prerequisite courses for my major.</p>

<p>Do you think my acceptance is likely to be rescinded?</p>

16

<p>You think getting a C- is grounds for rescinding? I might get that in precalc this semester. If I drop below, I'd be willing to retake it this summer. You think that would fly? I'm going to UCSC btw, not UCLA.</p>

17

<p>do cc's actually report +'s and -'s? mine doesnt...</p>

18

<p>I'm coming from a CSU.</p>

19

<p>I'm in the same position as dougie.
Anyone care determine whether we're screwed or not?</p>

20

<p>ok, i acutally sent in my changes. and the committee cleared me with no probloem. </p>

<p>it was a little nerve wracking though, becuase during the review period (mine was about 3 days) your abilitiy to submit SIR disappears and is replaced with this short letter.</p>
