Will my acceptance be revoked?

Applying to College
1

<p>So, I was just accepted Early Decision to Amherst College. While this is wonderful, my pre-decision waiting period was a disaster. I became:</p>

<p>1) Overwhelmed with schoolwork
2) Extremely anxious/slightly depressed
3) Sick.</p>

<p>My grades for 1st quarter were A-, A-, B+, B+, and B. Now they are around a C, C+, B-, B, and B+.</p>

<p>My mood and work ethic have skyrocketed since my acceptance. We have roughly three weeks in January before the end of the 2nd quarter (and end of 1st semester) and then Mid-Year Exams, and I hope to make a difference then and do very well on my exams, but I am still wondering...will my acceptance be jeopardized?</p>

<p>This slump has vaccinated me against any possibility of developing Senioritis, so I'm not too worried about my grades for the rest of the year. Am I in trouble? When do colleges check in to see how we're doing? Do our final, end-of-the-year grades matter most?</p>

<p>Basically my question is, SHOULD I BE WORRIED?</p>

<p>Thank you!</p>

<p>i wouldn’t be too worried. i get why you would be worried but i don’t think your admission will be in jeopardy. just my two cents. i’m no expert.</p>

<p>I don’t think the grades you listed would lead to a rescission. In any case, you will probably bring up both Cs in the two weeks after New Year. Worst case if the Cs persist is that you might start at Amherst on Probation, or Watch, or whatever they call it.</p>

<p>Just try not to fail any classes, and bring your Cs up to Bs if you can. You should be fine. Don’t worry yourself too much.</p>
