Colleges and Universities A-Z Vassar College

<p>Hi everyone! I got accepted to Vassar ED II and my mid-year grades in my AP classes are horrible! *Will the following grades get my offer redacted? * </p>

<p>Class - Q1 - Q2
AP Calc BC - 86 - 78
AP English Lit - 87 - 80
AP Govt & Econ - 91 - 85
AP Biology - 95 - 88
Spanish IV - 99 - 95
College Accounting - 100 - 94</p>

<p>*And if the Office of Admissions takes away my admissions offer will they return my non-refundable deposit? *</p>

<p>Money is really short and I don't know how I'm going to get $500 in my bank account (my parents have no money, they're living on their credit cards and I lent my dad all my summer money to pay bills), I'm just hoping my next two paychecks will cover it so I can send the check in before the 15th. (Could I possibly pay it by credit card or have the check deadline extended?)</p>

<p>Also, I did all my financial aid stuff late (I REALLY didn't expect to get in - Vassar was my dream) and they sent me a letter telling me what I was missing. I sent it all in and I'm going to call on Monday to make sure it was received.. but do you think lateness will GREATLY affect my financial aid package? I was thinking that b/c it was ED they wouldn't deny me financial aid b/c of lateness, but then again they have the right. </p>

<p>So what I'm really asking in the above paragraph is this: Will Vassar deny me financial aid (ED-II) b/c I sent the CSS profile and other documents extremely late? And the non-custodial parent statement is required for divorced parents, correct?</p>

<p>So sorry for the inane and long-winded post, I'm just feeling a lot of trepidation.</p>

<p>First of all, I'm gonna assume that your Q1 grades and Q2 grades are averaged together for your mid-year grades. I'm also gonna assume that you have each class every day. With these assumptions in mind, I get the following results: </p>

<p>AP Calc: 82 (B-, right?)
AP Lit: 83.5 (B?)
AP Gov't/Econ: 88 (B+?)
AP Bio: 91.5 (A-?)
Spanish IV: 97 (A?)
College Accounting: 97 (A?)</p>

<p>AVERAGE: ~90.3</p>

<p>-You'll be fine. Vassar understands that seniors experience senioritis. In fact, all colleges do (or should) understand it. As for the $500, you might want to call in and let the Admissions Office know about your situation so that something might be worked out. The people in Admissions can't be so unreasonable as to have a problem with that. As for Financial Aid, you'll be absolutely fine. As long as you sent it in, you're good. Vassar can't revoke your acceptance. You were chosen for a particular reason, and you're getting financial aid. If you don't, you do have the right to complain.</p>

<p>Oh yeah, btw, I know that I don't go to Vassar, but I did get in RD, so I still have a love for it, though I love Wesleyan more. :)</p>
