Emailing an admissions counselor at UCSC?!

I have a sticky kind of unique predicament that might get me rescinded and I am really concerned. People are telling me to email UCSC's admissions counselors, and I have but haven't gotten an answer. What's the email? and is this the correct one, which is what I've emailed <<myapplication@ucsc.edu >>.

I right now have a 3.8 unweighted 4.0 weighted gpa (2 ap classes). I also took an extra CC course, and I think I failed it. Does that count under the contract fulfillment of no D or F grades? Or does that contract only count for high school grades? And I think it might be too late for me to go to sign up for classes at a CC..

Thanks

ur school might work differently, but at my school, ur cc course only goes on ur transcript if you want it to.

do u have the option of preventing ur cc from sending ur grade to ur high school?

since its not a requirement, but an extracurricular, i'm SURE you'll be fine. and plus ur gpa is pretty high.

u have the correct e-mail. i e-mailed them and they answered like 2 days later. just try again, maybe they haven't gotten to it yet.

Call the admissions office or something. They respond to the email with an almost automated message everytime and are not very specific. I am sure they get hundreds of emails a day so they don't have the time to respond to them completely. I called them before and they were very helpfull.

Yeah, I'd recommend you call, too.

When I called, the wait was pretty long (>10 minutes), but I eventually got to speak with a live person.
