gradguy22 Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 (edited) Hey! I am an international student who's got admission in Cornell's master's program. In my final year of undergraduate studies, my GPA has dropped by 0.11 from a 3.41 to a 3.3 because I took electives which were pretty tough and couldn't cope. Could this be a cause for concern? Will the grad school rescind my application? Honest answers would be appreciated Edited July 24, 2018 by gradguy22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E-P Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 I've never heard of such a thing happening. Unless your offer was contingent upon something besides graduation (like maintaining a particular GPA), they wouldn't have a contractual reason to do so.

gradguy22 Posted July 24, 2018 Author Share Posted July 24, 2018 The admission letter had a contingency that I should successfully complete my degree (which I have done) with academic performance comparable to my performance till date. Does this qualify? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandmaster Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Yeah I agree with E-P. It is very rare they would rescind an offer of admission. Unless you did not graduate with the bachelor's degree (an admission requirement), or your GPA was just so terrible (like a 1.0) for your last term/year, I would seriously doubt they would rescind the offer.
