I just got in my state school EDP with a 3.90+ gpa, they have some vague statement in the acceptance conditions that you must maintain a "high level of academic performance", but how high? I've gotten pretty much all A's, but what if I get an average a B average the next two semesters, will they really take away my acceptance?

Laissez les bontemps roulez yo! As long as you don't fail all of your classes AND then kill a man, you're good. Either one of those alone though, you should be good.

Call anonymously and ask. Is it really worth the risk not to?

Besides, if you've come this far, just pick up the slack. You might as well graduate with honors.
 
I think it would be a good idea to just ask them, you're not going to get your mind at rest until you know for sure.

My own personal opinion would be if you're in the 3.2+ range then it would be kind of ridiculous to rescind your acceptance over that. But if you get below a 3.0 or you get C,D, or F I could see there being potential problems.
 
My AMCAS GPA was 4.0 and my last two semesters were 3.3 and 3.5. Avoid Cs and it more than likely won't be a problem.

Oh, you time traveled on your application?

Damnit I should've applied in sophomore year! 😛

Last quarter 3.4 GPA ftl 🙁
