ac40507 Posted April 22, 2016 Posted April 22, 2016 Am I going to get my admission rescinded? So I was accepted into my number 1 choice and I accepted. I'm a senior in college on a quarter system. So when I applied my winter quarter grades weren't in yet. I got really sick with pneumonia(was hospitalized) and had a huge research project to finish to be able to present right before my finals at a conference. I'm retaking 2 classes I got D's in and I know I'll get at least B+ in both classes. However, my winter quarter gpa is 2.48, while taking around 25 units( 7 semester units at a community college which are not included in that gpa and 18 quarter units with only 15 accounting for that gpa) and I'm worried that will cause them to take away my offer. None of the classes I did poorly in are required courses. However, I did get a D last quarter that I couldn't retake. Now, my gpa was lowered to what they had admitted me with because my admitted gpa did not include 12 units of 4.0. This is the portion of my acceptance that says conditions: " Please note that if currently enrolled in a degree program, XXX requires submission of an official transcript bearing successful completion of the degree, including any requirements communicated to you by your specific program prior to matriculation. Should either your final transcript reflect an academic performance below XXX standards or you engage in any unprofessional conduct, please be advised that your offer of admission may be compromised. " I will still graduate and my gpa should still rise with my final quarter. Will I be rescinded? I already accepted, got my welcome letter and paid my deposit. I went for my interview a few weeks back and got accepted. Please help!
preantepenultimate Posted April 22, 2016 Posted April 22, 2016 (edited) The decision to rescind the funding offer acceptance is entirely at their discretion. I don't know how they will handle it, but I can guarantee that ignoring it and hoping for the best is the wrong move. I'd recommend talking to your advisor ASAP for advice or assistance, then getting in touch with the program coordinator/contact person to make them aware of what happened and ask what the consequences will be, all things considered. The sooner you take care of this, the better. Edited April 22, 2016 by preantepenultimate
ac40507 Posted April 22, 2016 Author Posted April 22, 2016 I just mean my offer of admission entirely.

ac40507 Posted April 22, 2016 Author Posted April 22, 2016 Yeah, I'm fully planning on communicating this to the graduate coordinator, I just wanted opinions on whether I should be really worried. I know who my graduate advisor is, should I speak to them?
rising_star Posted April 22, 2016 Posted April 22, 2016 If you still meet the admissions requirements, it's highly unlikely they'd rescind your offer.
GradSchoolTruther Posted April 22, 2016 Posted April 22, 2016 Echo the other advice to take care of this ASAP. I'd write an email to the DGS first thing tomorrow.
ac40507 Posted April 26, 2016 Author Posted April 26, 2016 Called my graduate coordinator yesterday because she was out of the office last week. I was told that this is a non-issue. She said the committee wouldn't even look at it because they had already admitted me and they just look to make sure I graduate.
Concordia Posted April 26, 2016 Posted April 26, 2016 I think the main issue is that you will have a diploma and no pending indictment for you got it.
