Low Grade


Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

PhD student here, and I'm concerned about a course grade: I will probably get a C in an advanced undergraduate course that's completely unrelated to my major... Will I get into trouble for this? My GPA will still be well above the 3.00 minimum required by the Graduate School, but it's my understanding that any grade lower than B will raise a red flag. Should I be as worried as I am? What do you think?

Thank you!

I'm dealing with a similar problem and asked a similar question.  I asked my department head, and was told that they understand that lower grades will happen in an undergraduate course, and so it's not a big deal, especially since your overall GPA will work out to be over a 3.0.  I'd talk to your graduate advisor, but I wouldn't worry too much.
