What if I fail to meet Conditions of Admission for UCB?

Applying to College

<p>Hello,</p>

<p>I am admitted to University of California, Berkeley as an international student. I've read similar posts but my case is different. </p>

<p>Conditions of Admission states that I have to get a B or better grade for English course. My overall GPA is 3.87 and I received overall GPA 3.5 for the last semester at my community college; however, I failed to get B. I got C+ instead. My cc only allows to display straight letter grade so a C+ is eventually C. I tried to negotiate with my professor since it was 0.8% away from a B. There was no positive response. </p>

<p>I have already emailed my admission officer, explaining my situation and trying to be persuasive. Although I finished strong, the 0.8% might jeopardize my admission offer.</p>

<p>Does anyone in the same situation or have had the same experience? How does my case work, and what is the best action that I can take at this point?</p>

<p>You won’t be rescinded for a “C” on your transcript. Relax.</p>

<p>Call your admissions officer as soon as you can. Don’t wait for email for such an important question.</p>

<p>Good luck and let us know how it goes.</p>

<p>Reading this again I noticed this: “Although I finished strong, the 0.8% might jeopardize my admission offer.”</p>

<p>My thoughts: are you serious?</p>
