[quote=Anonymous]We need even more than a definition of subpar grades. It would be good to know why grades were subpar? If DC managed to get into a competitive school with 25th%ile stats then maybe subpar grades, aren't. If DC got in with 75th%ile stats but really didn't get over not attending their "dream school" until midway through the 2nd semester... If DC had never been away from home before and had a horrible fall, grade wise but seemed to start to turn things around in the spring... If DC was forced into lots of tutoring in HS but has managed the subpar grades on their own... Without further information, I think the best plan, IN JULY, is a contract with DC that says something like "You can live off campus this year but if you don't get a X.X GPA then you have to move back on campus as a junior." I would suggest that X.X should not be more than 0.5 GPA points higher than "subpar" even if you think DC should be able to get a 4.0.[/quote]
