Letter Requesting First Semester Senior Grades Means Borderline?

Why would some not receive a letter asking for grades?

Some have already submitted their grades, some letters may get lost in the mail… many reasons.

The way they write it makes it seem like they selected some people to be sent letters (preliminary review?).

“Preliminary” does not means “some,” it means “before” or “first.”

To respond to BigTexDad’s info, that doesn’t really say anything. It’s a very small sample size and the students who didn’t respond could have just as easily been accepted as rejected.

Yes, BigTexDad points that out, and then goes on to point out that the % reporting acceptances matches the overall acceptance %. So at worst, those asked for grades are being accepted at the overall acceptance rate.
