This will not be decided by a majority, or even a consensus. My thoughts for a “safe harbor”, from the proposed baseline:
- No grades below a "C" (so "C-" is not good!)
- Fewer than 3 grades below a "B-"
- GPA maintained above a certain threshold for each term (3.5 or 3.0)
- No unreported (to the university) changes to planned or in-progress courses. No significant deviation from planned work.
- Graduation from high school.
- No significant disciplinary or criminal issues.
In reality, probably 2 grades below a “C”, if the rest of the grades hold up, would be tolerated. Similarly, a drop in gpa, if it were recovered, would be bumpy, but likely not fatal.
