How much do schools care about post-acceptance grades?

Post by lambert8 » Thu Oct 11, 2012 8:45 am

I was just wondering how much schools care about the grades you get post acceptance when you send your final transcript. Is there any cases that would warrant an acceptance being taken back? Thanks.

Yes. If your grades tank significantly, they might withdraw your acceptance. Don't let them tank significantly.

If they drop a little bit, though, no one will care.

Unless you completely bomb....

they wont care, because they dont have to report your final numbers to USNWR. They only report the numbers you apply with.
