Hi there,

I agree with the others here. It does not feel like a big enough fall for them to rescind the offer (normally, those clauses refer to you truly turning into a terrible student and getting poor grades).

Try your best, make sure you maintain “good” grades, but don't worry too much if you don't keep outstanding grades.

Congrats on the offer!

Congratulations on your offer! 

I would be very surprised if they withdrew the offer on the basis of you having projected First on your CV and coming out with a 2:1, but if you're worried why do you ask the recruiting team what that clause means? You don't have to state your anxieties, just that you're interested to know more. 

The predicted grades are always up in the air, it is possible for you to be tracking a first in second year and end up with a 2.1. Usually a 2.1 is the requirement, so I don't see how they could withdraw an offer if you achieve that. Unless they have to cut people and start doing shady things, I would not worry about this.

Hi there, 

There is a very very small probability of them withdrawing their offer in this case. 

In most cases, they don't even check whether you've fulfilled the academic criteria. They recruited you for your skills, not because of your predicted grades anyway. 

So for now focus on getting good grades but don't freak out in case you don't get a first. 

Best,

Cristian
