Will I get rescinded from Temple university?

So throughout high school I’d say I had mediocre grades simply due to the fact my school forced me to take many art electives that were forced lowering my gpa to a 3.30.

I have recently got admitted into temple university and it’s my top choice.

Senioritis has hit hard and I’m now failing 2 of those art classes this marking period but expected to get a D in them as a final grade still allowing me to graduate. (They count as double credits too so it will tank my gpa)

I applied as a computer science major, and the rest of my grades should be A’s B’s and maybe one C.

Should I be convered, and what should I do, as I don’t wanna get my admissions revoked because of these art electives. And should I contact temple?

It’s March.

Request a sit-down with your teachers, tell them senioritis has hit you hard but that you’ve had a re-awakening and want to do your very best to try and end the year on a positive note. Ask them to work with you to figure out how to do that.

Surely you can raise a D to a B minus over the next two months?

None of us work for Temple admissions. But don’t leave it in their hands. Do everything in your power to raise grades to at least a C. Agree with @blossom – your first step should be to talk to the teachers, apologize for your senioritis, and see if you can come up with a plan to improve the grades by year end.

Can you pull off a C or C-? That won’t raise many eyebrows as a D.

I still don’t think you will have your offer rescinded since it is art electives if you pass, but it is possible.

I look at senior year as a time to get yourself ready for college. Many colleges look at it the same way. So you took reprieve /mental health break. Do as suggested above. Don’t let some art electives be the reason your going to a different college in the fall. You’re the only one in control of this, not the teacher. College is much harder than high school. You might have to talk to a professor for help or understanding. Starting now with your teacher is good practice. You have plenty of time to raise your grade but I would email your teacher today to set up a meeting for Monday.
