I am a Canadian citizen living in the us. I applied and recently was admitted to trinity college at university of Toronto for social sciences. My average for first semester was around 92% (unweighted, I'm not sure how us ap courses transfer into Canadian percentage but counting a weighted class as out of 110%, my average would be around 97). For what it's worth, I got a 34 on the ACT. it looks like my average will drop to around 87%. I'm terrified that my offer might be revoked. Anyone with knowledge of how admissions work here please tell me if worrying is warranted, because I'm terrified.

If you got conditional offer, then it says in the offer what average should you keep up. If you already got accepted, then i don't think so dropping it to 87 average would affect. cheese so you should be fine :)

Yeah, i doubt you're offer will get revoked. For humanities, i have to maintain a 75% avg, with a 70% in english. My actual average was an 84.6% (i had 90+ in all courses except 1, 73%) Sooo, unless they've blatantly mentioned a specific % that you have to maintain, you should be just fine! :)

In my acceptance letter U of T told me to keep an 75% average overall with at least a 70% in English. Unless your average drops dramatically below those stated in your acceptance letter I wouldn't worry about being rejected.
