Got a D in Ap biology....

I don't really like to beat around the bush, so I'll just ask you guys directly..


Is my admission going to get revoked?

Well, you really need to call the admissions office.
Sorry but I'm going to tell you straight up, I heard Santa Cruz is pretty picky about this kinda stuff. But i'm pretty sure if you give them a call in advance, they will likely NOT revoke your admission. Call them Monday, good luck. Tell me how it goes!

Hmm....ok I'll do that.



I have another question though.

If they do, in fact, revoke my admission, could it still be possible to write an appeal later that has a chance of going through?

Like say, I passed the AP exam and showed them that I have (somewhat) mastered the material enough to warrant a passing grade.

Or is that too much of a long shot?

Hi there and my sympathy for your problem. Definitely tell them now rather than later. UCSC is very picky about this and I have read 2 posts in the past of people who got their applications revoked for having a D after sending all their rejections to everywhere else they got in, so they ended up going to community college.

As far as I know, you cannot appeal your admission once it is revoked but someone might know the exact answer.

My advice would be looking into other colleges and cross your fingers with UCSC.
