I'm really nervous about my college revoking my acceptance due to my final transcripts.  I didn't fail anything but I did get a number of C's due to two very difficult classes, one of which was a college level physics class that has made me hate math.  I'm so worried though, what if something bad happens and I can't get a degree at all?  Where will I go?  What will I do?  Is this something I should even be insanely worried about?

What's the cutoff for your school?  You should be able to google it.

you would have to do extremely bad for a college to revoke your acceptance. Much worse than a C in an AP physics class...... unless its an ivy then idk maybe but i still doubt it

As long as your GPA is still 3.0, you should still be good, but if not, just make sure you have a back up plan aka community college.

I wouldnt worry too much about it. You may still want to apply to multiple colleges in the event something happens since you wont be guaranteed a spot in every college you apply to (regardless of your grades).

It's pretty much too late to apply anywhere now.

Wow, little late in the game don't you think....? You may want to apply to a smaller university that's basically open admission and get some good grades then transfer into the school you want. At this point almost all of the major universities are going to be full up on their freshman quotas.

What was your overall GPA and what is the GPA for the cutoff?

I don't know what my GPA now is but it started at 3.3.

I had a 3.8 and UCSD, UCLA or UCSB didn't accept me. I'm almost positive it is because I'm white. Don't expect to get in anywhere good with a 3.3, unless you are a minority.

GPA isn't a huge factor.. how were your ACT/SAT scores? A decent GPA with strong performance on the exams pretty much guarantees you a spot outside any Ivy League so long as you don't apply too late.

I scored really high in math, enough to where I didn't have to take the pre req math classes at university. The rest of my scores were above average except for one where I scored average.

If its a regional school it shouldnt matter too much, if its a national school then all bets are off.

I got a 1500 on my SAT, the scores were all pretty equal, about 500 each. SAT isn't a problem either, I've already been accepted to this school and it's a small school by the way. I'm just worried about my grades from senior year being a problem now and them revoking my acceptance.

In that case I doubt you have much to worry about, a lot of people slack off senior year, doesn't really have any bearing on how they'll do in college. You're good bud!

California doesn't have affirmative action so that is literally impossible.  You are getting squeezed out by asians with 4.0  For UCLA and UCSB you won't even be looked at if you don't have very close to a 4.0 and are an incomming freshman.

get real. uc schools can't even see your race during the admission process (prop 209) if you thought you could get into any of these schools with a 3.8 (weighted?)...lmao
