Acceptance Contingencies

I have been accepted to UofL's dental school and they, like I'm sure many schools, have additional requirements to maintain acceptance. One such requirement is to maintain or improve your cumulative GPA listed on your application. I get why they do this as an encouragement to keep your grades up. However, are they really going to penalize me if my GPA drops a bit? I have a 3.83 GPA, which can be very difficult to maintain or improve, especially with some of the classes that I will be taking. I find it hard to believe they would take back their offer if I end up with a 3.75, but who knows? Thoughts?

No!! Not worried about it all. I know that probably sounded silly, but just wondering if a dental school might look at that as not meeting their requirement. It states:

"I accept the offer to enroll in the ULSD Class of 2019. I understand by signing this document, I agree my offer is contingent upon:

• Completing all current and planned courses with a grade of "C" or better, keeping or improving my cumulative grade point average and completing my degree program as I indicated on my AADSAS application"

You're fine, don't worry.
