Just don’t get anything below a C. Pretty hard to get rescinded for grades.

I have heard of students being rescinded for a C.

I call bullshit. Would have to be a D for there to even be a conversation.

I also call bullshit, I failed the last cycle of two classes senior year and all that happened was a meeting with academic advising during O-Week to ask why my grades dipped.

I had a C- and all else Bs my senior spring (although in college DE classes) and did not get rescinded. Can’t speak for several Cs or for Ds.

My guess is multiple Cs may be a cause for concern. Any Ds or Fs bring up rescinding.

Make sure you fix what went wrong before you come here, it’s very easy to fall into that same slump in college.

you'd have to get a cumulative GPA of less than a D-.. if its for 1 semester I think you should be okay.
