I am a Transfer student who recently got admitted into UCLA as a Molecular, Cell, Developmental Bio major. My overall GPA is 3.7 and I finish all the lower division Biology and all the chemistry requirement. The only thing that I won’t finish is Physics (Strongly recommended). I was in physics this semester but due to a family emergency I dropped it and received a W. I report an academic change and tell them that I drop my physics. Yesterday, I received an E-mail ask me to submit my grade for my other classes once I receive them. Other than physics I am currently taking Biochem, English, and Calc 2. The problem is I won’t receive my official grade until early June and I am really worry that my admission decision will get rescind. This is my current standing in my classes, Biochem 92%, Calc 91.88%, English 96%. How likely is my admission will get rescind? should I start consider other schools now? They take down the Congratulation page… I am stressing out…
I am currently at a community college trying to transfer to UCLA as well, and a good friend of mine had her acceptances rescinded from all UCs because she didn’t finish Calc 2, an essential class for her accounting major. If physics is essential for your major, I’d brace yourself for a similar fate. And since your program is especially competitive and impactful, I’d be wary of a waitlisted person receiving your spot. I’m not sure if you’re a strong enough applicant and if your final grades are good enough to keep your spot, since I don’t know the full story, but best of luck anyways! And if you were accepted to other schools, be careful if they decide to rescind their offers as well.
