Accepted offer at EY

I accepted an offer for EY on their summer internship scheme, my predecited grade for first year was a low 2:1 and if my grade falls I fear they may reject the acceptance and go with another candidate. Has anyone got any experience or advice regarding what I can do
Does the offer have any conditions that mean you have to provide a transcript?

It states that I require documentary evidence

This happened to one of my close friends... they have been doing this for ages. He was depressed as hell but then moved on from it.

He ended up getting a third and his internship offer requirement was 2.1 and the offer got revoked after submitting his transcripts.

If I got a high 2:2 or a 2:2 do you think they would still go ahead with the internship, especially in the case of EY where the grade boundaries aren't as strict

No idea I was not lucky enough to even get EY come for me i was doing voluntary placement. Came through the mud but later on I realised EY is garbage anyways the big 4 you will end up pushing invoices if your going for accounting based role.

don't stress too much your young and to answer your question I have no clue. Only could recollect about my close friend he was having a tough time in 2016 and he didn't make it through. that's life.

Ahh alright that's fine mate, I try not to stress as much but I have loads of friends who've graduated and have no jobs especially in this market so the internship seems quite important for my future.
