Grades and Grade Point Averages (GPA)

Grades are assigned through application of standardized measurements rated by in letters (A to D), a range (example 1 to 6), a percentage of total number correct (example 70%), or as the number from of a possible total (example 50 out of 50). At predetermined set times through a school year, grades from subjects are averaged to give a Grade Point Average (GPA). The Cumulative Grade Point Average is the average of all grades over an educational life or specific for the total 4 years of high school.

What GPA is needed to get into University of Wisconsin Whitewater?

Asked by Wiki User

27.5 on last check. good to get at least a 28 to have a decent shot. At Madison the higher the better. They look at ACT scores more than high school GPA. A lot of kids from my high school applied there and to the University of Minnesota. Kids with average ACTs but high GPA's and lots of extracurriculars got into the U of Minn, but not Madison. Kids with high ACTs but not extracurriculars and poor GPAs got into Madison.

I only had a 27 on my ACT but I had a 4.0 and lots of AP classes and extracurriculars and I got rejected from Madison but I got into Minnesota. My best friend only had a 3.0 GPA and no extracurriculars, but he got a 33 on his ACT and he got rejected from Minnesota but accepted into Madison.

Get the highest ACT possible to get into Madison, that's pretty much all they look at.

What is Ohio state university's GPA requirement?

Asked by Wiki User

That depends on what program you want to get into and if you are coming right out of high school or transferring from another college or university.

Domestic high school students need to have a high school diploma or GED, good SAT and/or ACT scores, a good high school GPA and you need to have taken college prep courses in high school.

Domestic transfer students need to have a good GPA ("good" being a 2.0 or above but preferably a little higher than that), 45 quarter credit hours or 30 semester credit hours of college course work after graduating from high school, and they will also look at your ACT and SAT scores. Earning an Associates degree or its equivalent is also helpful especially if you opted not to take the ACT's and SAT's.

Can you get into chapel hill with 1400 sat and a 4.0 GPA?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

That depends on a lot of other factors. Is this weighted or unweighted GPA? If you take challenging classes in high school (honors, AP) and get an unweighted 3.8 you're definitely qualified for UNC in terms of your transcript. Test scores are also very important. Admissions standards also depend on demographics, in state/out of state, and legacy.

Will a 29 on your ACT and a 3.6 GPA get you into UW-Madison?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

you've got a decent chance. 3.6 could be better, but a 29 is a good score. its in the 95th percentile. its gonna really depend on your extracurriculars,the classes you took, and your essay (aka. the other factors) because you're kind of on the edge.

What GPA do you need to get into duke University?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I assume you are talking about the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. It is a very competitive school and the stronger your academic record, the better. Most students who are accepted have a strong GPA in challenging courses and have intellectual curiosity that is obvious on their application. Out-of-state applicants will probably find admissions a little more difficult than in state students. The majority of students are from North Carolina.

What GPA is needed to be accepted to Michigan State University?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

You need at least a 3.0 college GPA if you are transfer student. They do not list a minimum GPA for high school students applying, but it lists some other requirements. Admission requirements include essay(s) and SAT Reasoning Test or ACT. If you take the ACT, the writing portion is required. They consider the rigor of your classes to be important and have a required list. Those requirements include: 1 Elective 4 English 2 Foreign Language 3 History 3 Math 3 Science (one of these has to be a lab science) 3 Social Studies This list is the bare minimum, so if you take more than those, that is great.

What colleges admit students with a 2.1 GPA?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

As a general rule, most colleges and universities indicate a grade point average (GPA) of 2.0 is required, especially when it is a transfer student. This is because the GPA is only used as a part of the acceptance criteria. However, each program of study within the institution may have a GPA particular to itself. For example, a liberal arts program may require no less than a 2.0, while their business programs may require a GPA of 3.2. Read the following carefully. I wrote this to help prospective college or university students find information about accredited schools within the United States. Best wishes.

* Required: SAT Reasoning Test or ACT * Class Rank * Rigor of secondary school record * Standardized Test Scores * Academic GPA * Application Essay * Extracurricular Activities * Geographical Residence * Racial/Ethnic Status * Recommendations * State Residency * Volunteer Work * Work Experience
