say i get into a few UCs, which i should cuz of ELC, if i get a D this term in AP calculus, will the UC automatically take away all offers of admission? or is it more like a “maybe” thing for some UCs and not all of them?

<p>depends on the UC. what are your stats?</p>
<p>i just wanna know if its like a rule or something, where they "automatically" are required, by their policy, to take away any admission when they see a D in the senior year.</p>
<p>nothing's automatic...admission decisions are not being done by a computer</p>
<p>but im talking about "revolking" admissions decisions policy. Does anyone know wat the policy for "revolking" admissions in regards to "D" grades is?</p>
<p>It only matters if the D was in a required class.</p>
<p>would AP Calculus be considered a required class becuase its math? or is it not because i already satisfied the three yrs of math previously?</p>
<p>It's not required.</p>

<p>Why don't you just email the relevant UC's office? Use a different email address from the one you submitted on your application if you're afraid they'll think you have a D and reject you.</p>
<p>As long as your GPA is ok you'll be fine. Just dont get 2 Ds!</p>
<p>According to their guidelines, they can. They most likely won't if you only get 1 D and have a good reason why it happened.</p>
<p>My brother had a D. He sent in the Statement of Intent to Register to UC Santa Cruz, and in June I think, Santa Cruz contacted him, basically saying that he was admitted conditionally and the D was not meeting the conditions that they set, and it said that admission could be revoked (this was for a 3rd year language class). </p>
<p>They asked him to write a signed letter and mail it to UCSC explaining why he got the D. He didn't write a particularily good letter, and soon after he sent it, UCSC replied to him saying something like "Though the D was troubling, we're still accepting you to UCSC". I'm paraphrasing a lot obviously, but with UCSC, I think it was more of a scare tactic type of thing. Of course, this is UCSC, I have no idea how the more competitive UCs deal witht this.</p>
<p>I know two girls who were honors students from 2 different schools but got D's in Sr year. One was rejected from UCSC (Hon. Chem)/decent Cath. school Hon program, the other was accepted at UCSC (Hon/AP French 4th year) top CA public. You take your chances.</p>
<p>I would guess you would not be admitted to UCB, UCSD, UCLA. But I'm not sure about the ELC status.</p>
<p>Well ELC is thrown out the window when you don't meet their terms of admission. If you only have one D, the most likely scenario would be the one rc251 described about his brother I would say, although there's nothing that could barr the college from doing what they said they would do if you breach the terms of admission...</p>

<p>I believe that for the most part admissions are conditional and include a statement indicating that you are admitted provided you complete your coursework with a "C" or better. I know of someone whose admission to Cal State Long Beach was revoked due to a "D" in a non-required math course and an otherwise good GPA ( 3.8 , I believe) . He was, however, admitted to Cal State Fullerton.</p>
<p>wow cal state long beach rejected him....weird</p>
