<p>Hi All,</p>
<p>I was accepted to Tulane with the $22k Distinguished Scholar scholarship, but I am worried because I am in danger of getting a "C" in AP Statistics. I have never gotten a "C" before. Will Tulane take back my scholarship offer? I'm assuming they won't take back my admission offer :-(</p>
<p>Math is my worst subject. The only B's I've gotten were in math, but I thought it was important to take math all the way through my senior year. All of my other grades this semester are A's. </p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>No, it won’t affect either your scholarship or your admission. Relax. Congrats on the scholarship and have a wonderful career at Tulane.</p>
<p>Stats are really hard for some people, even sometimes for people that are good at math otherwise. It is just different. Some topics are like that. Foreign languages for some people. Accounting for some people. Just the way life is.</p>
<p>Thanks, that makes me feel a lot better! Whenever my teacher says, “This chapter should be pretty easy,” I bomb the test, but when she says “This one is pretty difficult,” then I do well. I’m basically all over the place in that class. I’m definitely a language person and not a math person!</p>
<p>How badly do you have to do to get an acceptance rescinded… I have been having trouble in two of my classes and will most likely finish the year with 2 c’s and a few b-'s. I was accepted with around a b b+ average though.</p>
<p>This comes up every year for all universities. Frankly, you pretty much have to not graduate high school, although I suppose a really horrible performance but still squeaking by might do it. The most I have ever heard of a school doing otherwise is sending a letter saying they expect the student to realize that college requires discipline and hard work and they expect them to return to the academic level that got them accepted in the first place. But in those cases I am talking D’s or F’s, not the couple of C’s you are talking about, and certainly not the one C the OP references. Just try not to fall prey to a terminal case of senioritis.</p>
<p>haha good to know. During high school I worried about getting good grades, then when I applied I worried about getting in, now I guess I need something to worry about so I’m making myself worry about staying in.</p>
<p>Happens to a lot of people. You are in, and at a great school. Relax and enjoy being a second semester senior.</p>
