I recently got into UC Berkeley as a transfer student with a 3.7 GPA. Unfortunately, this semester I took a costume design class unrelated to my English major and got an “I” for reasons I am still trying to figure out. Long story short, we had a practical/project based final that was worth over 50% of the final grade. In preparing for my other three finals the same day, I rushed out and forgot half of the project at home. The professor told me the project would get a “C” - she would not accept any e-mailed late work under any circumstances whatsoever. So, I went home, resigning but expecting to get something between a C and B in the rest of the class as I attended and completed the work, but such was not the case.
Please let me know if this will mean rescinded admission, or what steps I should take to avoid that as much as possible. Thanks!
