A friendly reminder and note of encouragement for those high school seniors that are beginning to feel the full effects of "senioritis". The National Association for College Admission Counseling (NACAC) reports that colleges say final grades are the reason for revoking admission 68.7 percent of the time. After working hard your entire high school career, keep up the effort so you are not counted in this unfortunate group.
College admission is conditional and based on the successful completion of the final year of high school. Colleges expect students to maintain or improve on the academic performance criteria that got them admitted. A negative change in one's academic record might force a college to reconsider and possibly rescind their offer of admission.
Do well on your final exams, as many high school transcripts include these grades. Stay the course! Work hard until the end! Show the colleges that they made a wise decision to admit you.
