<p>I think people have made it with one C. Ask your counselor to address it.
Another thought–depending on how close the C was to a B, is is possible to explain the circumstances to the teacher and have the grade changed? Not sure if the grade is “set in stone” or if this would be allowed, but when that big of a scholarship is on the line, it wouldn’t hurt to consider any/all options. I am a teacher, and I would certainly consider changing a grade under these circumstances. I have changed a grade before at a student’s/parent’s request–so the student could participate in EC.</p>
