It depends what the college offer. If you don't meet the requirements for your chosen course, you'll normally be offered something else e.g. if you wanted to do 4 AS levels but get a D in GCSE Maths (say), they'll usually expect you to take 3 AS levels and to resit your GCSE.
No matter what the reason is for your missing core course requirement for the university in question, the next move is in your hands, either by complying with the university’s conditional admission policy or through the community college route, if your high school schedule cannot accommodate this additional class.
Also if you don’t get accepted into the uni, but end up getting higher than expected for your final exams, you can always call up clearing and try to get in that way. But check if the university participates in clearing as some don’t. For example, Oxford doesn’t, neither does Cambridge, Imperial College London, LSE ?
OP: No one can really answer this; it depends solely on your college. If you don't meet the offer you may still get a place, but if you don’t get the grade phone up the college (preferably on the day you get them).
If you do not meet requirements for courses this can affect your ability to be accepted into a particular major or taking particular courses required for that major. Not meeting the requirements for a course means you will need to take the necessary steps to acquire the requirements.
In certain circumstances they can give an offer but will still expect you to get the grades. In others they will just reject you. In that case you just need to work as hard as possible and come out with real grades. Applying the following year with the actual grades.
Most colleges and universities have programs for undecided students. If you don't declare a major as a freshman, you can take general education classes for your first few semesters so that you'll have more time to think about what you want to do with your life.

The other major factor that affects your chances of getting rejected from college is the strength of your application. A strong college application usually has the following features: A high GPA and rigorous, challenging course load. High test scores on the SAT/ACT, AP exams, IB tests, etc.
There is no rule keeping denied students from asking admissions officers the reason for the decision. However, it's very much likely for them to get a generic response or none at all. It's a better idea for denied students to ask admissions officers what they could do for increased admissions chances.
Although colleges never like to do it, and thankfully don't have to do it very often, it is possible for a college to revoke or rescind its offer of admission after the letter of acceptance has been sent.
If you are still unsure, check the university's website for further clarification. Universities may accept lower grades or reduce the entry requirements for some courses in Clearing 2021. Be sure to reach out to the university first, explain your situation and see what they can verbally offer you.
If the student is a freshmen and does not meet the requirements for any of the majors selected, then they are reviewed for general admission. If the student is a transfer and does not meet the requirements for the major selections, then they are denied and given "requirements not met" as the decision status.

This process is meant to help you identify where and why you may be experiencing difficulties, and determine how best to address them. Your academic progress status will not appear on your official transcript. And if you meet certain conditions, your status will end and you will return to good academic standing.
After you are placed on an academic progress status, you will meet with your Academic Advisor (normally your UAD or UAD for Student-Athletes) to discuss your academic plans. We encourage you to check in with your advisor several times throughout each subsequent quarter to help you stay on track.
If you can meet the conditions for satisfactory academic progress, your status will end and you will return to good academic standing.
If you are placed on academic probation, you must fulfill certain conditions for three consecutive quarters in order to return to good academic standing. To be removed from academic probation, you must: 1 Earn a minimum of 12 units of new course work each quarter for three quarters in a row 2 Maintain a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or better each quarter for three quarters in a row

If you are suspended, your transcript will show a gap in enrollment terms, just as it would for a student on a voluntary leave of absence. There will be no indication of the reason for the gap in enrollment.
They will have advice and may have other options available to you. Bring questions and any paperwork that you usually bring to advising meetings. You may want to research some of your options beforehand (backup major, similar majors, etc).
After you've met with your advisor and if this is an option, apply again. It could be that the round of applications was competitive for the cycle you applied too. Ask students currently in the major what they did to standout in their applications.
Don't put all of your eggs in one basket. What is another major that you are interested in? To make your existing classes and credits count, look at majors that have almost the same prerequisites. Your advisor can help you identify one.
If a minor is offered in the major you weren't accepted into, look at the requirements to make it your minor.
This is a pretty drastic option, but if it is a major that you are passionate about and want to pursue, this can be an option to consider.
Then you don't go to college, it's that simple. If you don't get the grades they want, they won't accept you. There are still people who don't have a provisional place at college, and on GCSE results' day if they get the grades the college needs and you don't, they'll take your place and you'll be left with nothing.
If you don't meet the offer you may still get a place, but if you don’t get the grade phone up the college (preferably on the day you get them). As it's a college they probably won’t allow you to retake all of the subjects you did, normally , they just offer English language, Maths and Science - so you can reach the min. requirements for uni's.
Call up each of your back-up universities and ask to be put through to the Clearing helpline. (It’s really important to do this yourself rather than letting someone else call for you.)
2. Pick up your grades from your school or college. Once you know you’ve been entered into Clearing, you’ll need to pick up your results from your college or university, so you can tell the admissions officers you speak to. 3. Search for courses you’re interested in, and create a shortlist.
It might be helpful to make notes during each call you make so you can remember what different universities have said, as well as any contact details you might need later on.
Clearing often gets a bad reputation as a ‘last resort’ or otherwise undesirable outcome for students. However, many who use the system (which is over 60,000 each year) end up feeling that things couldn’t have worked out better.
It’s true that Clearing allows you to apply for any course, but be careful not to make a snap decision without thinking it over fully first. You ideally want to choose something you’ll be happy studying for the next three years, so try to look for courses similar to the one you originally picked, or even one that you prefer.
You can phone up however many unis you like on Results Day – some will give you a verbal offer, others may not. Once you have an offer you’re happy with 100%, you can add your choice on Ucas Track. (Be aware that you can only add one course at a time, so you can’t add another unless the uni rejects you.)
