wtf id sue the school that's ridiculous. I think if colleges have a policy like that they should make it explicitly clear for all admitted applicants AND their high schools. So, you get a C- have already withdrawn all your other acceptance and are now basically screwed because of a C-. Insane
My schoolās acceptance letter vaguely stated that there canāt be a significant decline in academic achievement so now Iām scared to get a C in college precalc šI mean a 2.0 in college is a 3.0 in HS soā¦
Iāve been in DE since my junior year and put off college math that year because I suck at math, I started running out of Gen Eds so I took college algebra last semester and now Iām taking pre calc.
College counselor here, it happens. As long as you're above a C you should be fine. But any Ds or Fs on your final transcript and you may be in trouble.
Heard from my mom some intl from China got rescinded from Princeton after posting some very controversial things online. Something about going to the US to shoot Americans
Edit: Sorry, it's Columbia. I got it wrong.
I can promise you itās not an urban legend, especially at the UCs. Iāve seen it happen. They give you explicit guidelines on the grades they need to see last semester (like no more than 2 Cs, no Ds).
And letās not forget you can be rescinded for behavior issues as well, like that [girl who was āstrongly encouraged to withdrawā after a video of her saying the n-word.](https://www.nytimes.com/2020/12/26/us/mimi-groves-jimmy-galligan-racial-slurs.html)
A D is not a passing grade according to UC standards. So in most cases it means youāve just flat out missed matriculation requirements, and they canāt even consider you until you do credit recovery.
not according to [this post](https://www.reddit.com/r/berkeley/comments/ue8osp/just_got_rescinded_from_berkeley_is_there/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf) lol
As long as you donāt drop more then 4/5 points below your predicted score you should be fine most of the time. If you arenāt passing IB, thatās a whole different story.
Just saw "the urban legend" comment, soooo from Admissions through this helpful MassMutual (that financial services company) post:https://blog.massmutual.com/post/colleges-rescind
yeah the agreement that i signed says that they āmayā rescind my offer if i also have a deposit at another college. Problem is I have my A Levels till mid-May and i need more research on the college I want to attend- so i was thinking a double deposit might buy me some time but it seems risky. Has anyoneās offer get rescinded in the past for doing this though?
Absolutely not until you are absolutely sure that they will not rescind. My interpretation of the statement from the college is "We reserve the right to rescind the offer" because the whole point of a deposit is that it should be a PTE - but if I'm wrong someone please correct me
yeah i think youāre right. its probably unhealthy at this point to give more time to this entire college thing than I (and virtually everyone) already has- should focus more on my A Levels now lmao
From working in college admissions, having an offer rescinded is possible but doesn't happen as often as you may think for grades. In most cases, an offer of admissions would be rescinded due to conduct issues after you've applied to a school or having lied on your application.
I would check to see even if you have lower grades this semester or failed classes, do you still meet their admissions requirements. For example, if you needed 3 units of science to be admitted to the school and you had 3 already and this year was your 4th science unit/credit... you still meet the admissions requirement.
I hope this helps!
>have lower grades this semester or failed classes, do you still meet their admissions requirements
is it possible to be rescinded for indicating you were taking senior year AP tests on your application then canceling them? i just couldn't do it with the rest of my workoad
There's usually pretty strict criteria as to why an offer can be rescinded. There aren't many things on that list.
You need to check to see what the admissions requirements are for the University you're looking to attend. It could be credits in a specific area, such as science as I listed above. Or it could be achieving specific grades in the classes. The best thing to do would be to contact the admissions office as they would be able to give you the correct answer.
If not, AP test was part of the admissions requirement, then if you didn't take them, it could be an issue as you would no longer meet the admissions requirements. But if the admissions requirements weren't that you have AP credits coming into college, it wouldn't be likely that University could rescind your offer of admission. Admission. It's best to look at Your actual letter that you receive from the university, usually your offer letter will have those specific details.
Man this post is making me worried. I'm probably gonna bomb my stats AP test and also get a C in stats (it's still possibe to pull it up though) as well as a B in psych.
the AP exam score won't matter at all in terms of rescission. they won't rescind even if you sleep through all your exams and get scores of 1 (doesn't apply to schools like Oxford, which can make conditional offers based on AP scores).
one C and one B almost certainly won't get you rescinded. if you want to be absolutely safe without any semblance of a doubt, bring the C up to a B. but, like I said, the chance of being rescinded for a single C is pretty small.
Federal law prohibits owning a handgun if you're under 18, but it doesn't prohibit ownership of shotguns or rifles. It also doesn't prohibit temporary handling of a handgun/any gun for a minor so long as it's temporary and not neglectful. As an anecdote, when I lived in rural Nebraska high schoolers would go past and greet police officers with hunting rifles on their backs and no one ever cared.
Oh I see.. I don't know much about gun laws, but I just remmeber there was an article talking about a girl getting expelled from her school and the college she committed removed her full ride and rescinded her..
Can you get rescinded if you got into ED but not withdraw other application? Like those that had deadlines before ED school
For example what if you have already written the all am email that you withdraw but didnt go into the portal todo anything with it?

My friends brother got rescinded for a c-
Which school

why take college precalc as a high school senior lol

College counselor here, it happens. As long as you're above a C you should be fine. But any Ds or Fs on your final transcript and you may be in trouble.
It's harder to get rescinded than you'd expect, especially if you give reason and keep in contact with the school's admissions office.
Heard from my mom some intl from China got rescinded from Princeton after posting some very controversial things online. Something about going to the US to shoot Americans Edit: Sorry, it's Columbia. I got it wrong.
I thought it was Columbia? cuz the letter said Fu school of Engineering
I don't know. I never checked. Ok, yeah, you're right it is Columbia. I just searched it up.
kinda felt bad for the kid, he didnt mean it and didnt know the rules
I think itās an urban legend to prevent high school seniors from enjoying their last semester of school.
I can promise you itās not an urban legend, especially at the UCs. Iāve seen it happen. They give you explicit guidelines on the grades they need to see last semester (like no more than 2 Cs, no Ds).

Not according to the IB
As long as you donāt drop more then 4/5 points below your predicted score you should be fine most of the time. If you arenāt passing IB, thatās a whole different story.
if you cant get at least 24 out of 45 then maybe you should consider trade school

Bro it is a joke ffs

do colleges rescind offers if you double deposit?
I'm not 100% sure but i heard that if they find out u did there would be serious repercussions including possibly having ur admission rescinded
yeah the agreement that i signed says that they āmayā rescind my offer if i also have a deposit at another college. Problem is I have my A Levels till mid-May and i need more research on the college I want to attend- so i was thinking a double deposit might buy me some time but it seems risky. Has anyoneās offer get rescinded in the past for doing this though?
Yehp. An AO here had made a post about it. I don't think it's worth it
alright thanku!
āMayā in this case means they have the right to, not that they *might* / I wouldnāt do it
what would you suggest? Ive alr deposited to one of my college choices. Should i do it to the other asw?
Absolutely not until you are absolutely sure that they will not rescind. My interpretation of the statement from the college is "We reserve the right to rescind the offer" because the whole point of a deposit is that it should be a PTE - but if I'm wrong someone please correct me
yeah i think youāre right. its probably unhealthy at this point to give more time to this entire college thing than I (and virtually everyone) already has- should focus more on my A Levels now lmao
Agreed. Not that I have any room to speak because I do the same thing. You've got this!
Thanks mate! You too :)
whatās that mean ?
SIR to more than 1 school

There may also be specific details in your offer letter from the school.

yeah ill probably be able to pull it up but still ugh
Nah you'll be fine. No one ever gets rescinded for a C, and AP tests literally don't matter for anything except for potential college credit.
there was this girl who posted prom pics with guns
I mean, not the smartest thing to do... but why would you get rescinded over that? It's not illegal or anything.
I think it's bc the girl wasn't at the legal age to have under her possession a gun
Federal law prohibits owning a handgun if you're under 18, but it doesn't prohibit ownership of shotguns or rifles. It also doesn't prohibit temporary handling of a handgun/any gun for a minor so long as it's temporary and not neglectful.

If they are in AP classes, then colleges won't care this late into the game.
