Applying to College

<p>This is my senior year so i’m really confused about college
The colleges i want to get into have a minimum requirement that states you can only have a minimum of c for a letter grade
well in my freshmen year i slacked off and got a d in algebra 2 honors
its my senior year and i’m really regretting it now
UGH
what can i do to still get accepted
can i even do anything?</p>

<p>As the saying goes, “Change your attitude and you change your life.” BTW, lots of colleges forgive a bad freshman year.</p>

You can call or email the colleges you are considering and ask if they consider frosh year grades, and also to discuss your situation.</p>

<p>Many ad coms will overlook a course, especially freshman year, if the rest of the application is stellar, essays well writeen, EC’s stand out, standardized scores within range, student is a good fit for the university…one poor grade will not cancel out all of the positives. Go for it.</p>

<p>Just contact those colleges and tell them very simply something like “I got a D in my freshman year of high school. Is there any reason that I should apply to your institution?”</p>
