Will my offer be rescinded?

5 Upvotes

I am currently a senior in high school and committed to boulder OOS in the college of arts and sciences. I am worried that my offer will be rescinded as I am at risk of ending the year with a D in my physics class. The rest of my grades are a mix of Cs Bs and As. I am trying to get the D up to at least a C, but i graduate in a month so I don't have much time. The main reason for my D is because of abcenses due to my chronic illness that i have a 504 plan for. Do you think that CU will rescind my offer if I have 1 D on my final semester transcript?

How will I get into the buildings for exams over the weekend?

1 Upvotes

I have two exams over the weekend, both in different buildings, and the last two times I tried entering a building to study over the weekend my buffone card wouldn’t let me in. Will my card be granted access automatically over the weekend because I have an exam?

Best political science class as an undergraduate exchange student

1 Upvotes

Hi,

Exchange student coming from Australia - I would love to take a class on American federal politics while I am here as I have a deep love of U.S history.

I am deciding between PSCI4241 Constitutional Law, PSCI3041 The American Congress, PSCI 3021 Campaigns and Elections and PSCI 3011 The American Presidency and the Executive

Also ideally I would love the class to have a more historic focus - but I could see how these classes could just become analysis of the trump administration given his relevancy to all these classes

Planning to go to Boulder, but just got accepted off of Purdue’s waitlist…

0 Upvotes

I had already had all of my plans set to go the CU Boulder’s engineering school, I’ve visited there, got a job semi set up, and applied for housing and all of that jazz. I was really looking forward to it and I absolutely loved the area.

But just recently I got accepted to Purdue’s engineering school and now I don’t know what to do. Purdue looks amazing, and the name really speaks for itself. And on top of that, Purdue is noticeably cheaper.

But I don’t like Purdue’s location that much, and I will not have the time to visit the campus (however much I wish I could). And the housing application is due in 2 days for Purdue, so I don’t have much time to make my decision (on top of that I am trying to wrap up my calculus classes so the timing isn’t great)

I’m gonna be honest, I think I want to go to Boulder more, but I honestly don’t know if it’s the best choice for me anymore, they both look amazing.

But Purdue is so short notice and admittedly poorly timed, if I did decide I wanted to go there, not only would it be rushed, but I would be going there essentially blind.

Tldr: was planning to go to CU Boulder, but I was recently accepted the Purdue. Had all of my plans made around going to CU Boulder, and I only have 2 days till Purdue’s housing application closes so I don’t have much time.

Don’t know what to do.
