What kind of grades do you need to maintain once you are accepted?

I have a couple interviews coming up this fall semester and I am just wondering that if I got accepted in December, what sort of grades would I need to maintain to not lose my acceptance? I understand that this may differ from school to school but what are some estimated averages among most schools?

3.0 and go

Cs get degrees.

I would say you should continue to do your best, but if senioritis catches up with you...

D's get degrees - unless it is a pre-req class

Just don't aim for the minimum, otherwise it is easy to end up falling below the minimum. For people with outstanding prereqs, I have heard of dental schools telling them to just get it done. Finishing with at least a 3.0 term GPA is probably a safe bet.
