What is the probability of an Ivy League college withdrawing their admission offer when your final year grades drop significantly. (say from straight A's to 2 c's).

You may have to explain the drop, Carl, but I don't think you're in any danger of having your acceptance revoked. Was the reason for your drop personal circumstances or just plain senioritis? Also, were you accepted ED/EA or RD?

You may want to lobby for some support from your school counselor. If your Ivy's admission office makes an inquiry about you, you may want to have your counselor standing by to help explain your grades' circumstances. Let us know if anything happens. Good luck, but I don't think you have anything to fear.
