once accepted ....what level of acedemic performance is needed for the rest of your undergraduate senior year?

e.g. just pass or keep up the good work?

just do as well as you'd normally do. even if they don't notice or care, it's still good for your soul not to give up as soon as you get what you want.

You have to do as well as you have done before. Your senior year work has to be consistent with what you have done in the past three years.

Some of the schools even state that your acceptance can be revoked if your senior grades are not what you have had in the past.

Don't risk any problems down the road, just do great and cheer up, you are almost done. I had such terrible senioritis and hated going to class.

Well, I don't know about you guys, but I don't feel like doing as well as I normally do. I usually get 3.7s every quarter which is a mix of As and B+s.

Do I feel like working hard for nothing? NO. Thus, I will be happy with keeping a B average.

It depends on if the school has given you contigencies. I have one acceptance that states I must finish my degree without strong deficiencies, another acceptance has no contigencies (I could quit w/o even finishing my degree). It all depends on how strong your original app is. I suspect most every school will anticipate some level of "senioritis". I highly doubt that a student with a 4.0 would be dropped on account of a mediocre last semester, even if that was "threatened". Just don't make any D's or F's, and you'll probably be fine.

UH OH...I'm in trouble 🙄

I am having the same problem. Before two weeks ago, my motivation for doing well at school was to get in. Now that I am, it's hard to focus on my coursework.

I don't think that my grades will fall through the bottom or anything, but I don't think that they have to be steller either. I think I'll settle with splitting A's and B's. Besides, now that I have to move, I'm going to have a lot of preparations to make. It feels funny not to live in a cloud of uncertainty.....I think I like it🙂
