Will I get rescinded?

Why don’t you pick up the phone and ask?

No one here can tell you that.

Does your letter of admission say anything specific to senior grades? Is there a reason your grades have dropped?

Regardless, please talk with your HS counselor tomorrow to see what they think you should do, if anything. Don’t contact the school until you get some guidance from your counselor.

Tried to but it was after office hours, but I’m really anxious about the possibility, so I’m trying to gauge the chances of it happening

Today was my last day at school, but I’ll definitely email him.

My prediction is that you will not get rescinded- but you may be asked why you got a C in math… Not a great way to kick off your studies in CS and math, but probably not fatal.

What were you planing to say if you got thru? Again, talk with your HS counselor first. Discuss why the low grades happened and how you should handle it with UIUC…I don’t think this will sneak by them without UIUC wanting an explanation, either verbally or in writing.

I lean towards explaining the situation to your AO before they see the final transcript, but I defer to your counselor. Big picture they don’t want to rescind you, but they will want to understand what happened, and your plan for this not happening in the fall.

Okay I’ll rehearse what I have to say when they likely ask about the drop in grades/understand if the conversation will likely happen or not

Just adding if the C was due to gaps in your understanding of the subject, be sure to repeat the class in college. Math is cumulative.
