So about your college thing - I think that some people lose offers due to failing to disclose a health condition (this is more important for health based courses). Alternatively, this is more of a shot in the dark, underperforming in exams enough so that the place didn't expect it (honestly that would probably take more effort than passing as expected, ya know). I don't think the college can take away an offer unless you either refuse it or some sort of other issue, e.g. a criminal record not being disclosed, occurs

thank you for sending in some advice! orz  yeah ;; from the reddit posts i read and dms i received, unless you do something very extreme or your grants tank considerably, then students are fine.  so to whichever being is up there i hope the admissions office doesn’t take a look at my grades too much.  i plan to major in cs, and my calculus grade dropped from a B to a C this semester, so i’m just like . hoping they ignore that bahahah.  thank you again awa

About the college stuff- it happens!

One reason could be because of grades. Counselors often warm seniors from just... stopping their efforts once they get accepted. A lot of kids in my school got acceptance letters, stopped going to classes/doing their work, and had their offers received.

Another reason could be because of behavior or posts you make. Which is why there's "no phones, no pictures" rules in some college spaces. What you post can most likely be seen by administration and they can rescind the acceptance if you're pulling stunts or being hateful.

Another reason could be because they don't think you're the right candidate for their school anymore. Goes a bit with the first two, but say you stop attending clubs or sports, which can be essential into getting into colleges (specific ones) and they were reliant on you staying in that for you to come.

If you have any questions feel free to ask! I might pop in your messages if you need specific things answered. Hope this helps.

orz YEAH i heard that colleges actually look at social media pages of students?  that’s so wack like . . . i can see why but that just feels like you’re being watched highkey.  thank you for the advice and insight though . . . hopefully this info also helps other students who are in a similar bind as i am!!

Abt the college thing- assuming you live in the US bc this is my knowledge about the college process - typically that would happen if you do something really bad (I.e., hate crime-y/bullying/HS reports you cheating etc) or if you completely tank your grades (and I mean REALLLLY tank) after they accepted you (slight slips won’t matter- it’s your last year of HS and it happens to a lot of people). Other than that, if they rescind an admission offer out of the blue, I would call the admissions staff and ask why. I would also make sure you have everything they requested of you, sent to them (transcript/letters of rec/essays/whatever they require). Hope this makes sense!

yes, i do live in america (yay?); i sent in all my info regarding admissions, and my parents are just anxious over my grades.  last semester i had like a’s-b’s with like . one c iirc, but now i have majority b’s and two c’s with around two a’s.  one of those c’s is in calculus, so my parents are concerned because i plan to major in cs, an engineering branch, which pretty much entails mathematic proficiency sigh.  everything you said makes sense though!  thank you for being so thorough.

regarding ur last post abt college application and stuff,

in my past experience usually colleges/universities would set some kind of deadline for you to process ur application further after they have accepted ur application. if u fail to proceed with the application (usually it has something to do with payment if anything else) then they would nullify your application.

i dont think it has anything to do with ur score seeing as you did get accepted in the first place (?)

im sorry if i couldn't help much.

you did help!  yep, i did send in all of my stuff, my concern is mostly with grades though ahh.  im sure other anons who are looking through this thread will also find advice that they can use if they’re applying to colleges as well!

hi hi!! regarding the school thing, i’m not sure if it applies to all unis around the world but from where i’m from, when you apply to university through your grades (not from entrance exam) and the uni accepts you, that’s when they start to verify you grades to see if it’s legit or not like if they find one number off then they might pull the offer even though you’ve already received an invent :(( that’s one of the main reasons i’ve been told why your invitation could get canceled though i’m not sure about other factors!

regardless, i hope you’re doing fine and best of luck in everything you’re going through!!

what you said is true!  it’s encouraged that seniors still try with their classes, even after they’ve been given offers by colleges.  that’s what counselors tell us at least, but from actually college students, i’ve heard rescinded offers are actually pretty rare, even if your grades do slip . . . so i’m genuinely hoping that it seldom happens because . gosh . urk ahsdflasj

thank you for the well wishes!!  same to you anon, and everyone who sent in advice.
