1st Sem. GPA

<p>Oh, my mistake, it is a 2.83. Give the admissions office a call and do your best.</p>

<p>This is pretty pathetic, but I got into UCR through their Highlanders Scholar program but it specifies 3.0 with no lower than a B (This is HSP only) so I'm going to get my admission to Riverside revoked since I might get a C in one of my classes (not because I'm slacking off but because that class is RIDICULOUSLY hard--I'm normally an A student!)</p>

<p>What about SD? It's my dream school.</p>

<p>if i remember correctly, UCSD required a 3.0 average and no grade less than a C- as well.</p>

<p>Yeah, yeah, bag on UCR, go ahead. Anyway, policies are policies, but students can be allowed around certain things if the people admitting feel they should be. Contact the HSP program office and talk to them. Maybe if you can demonstrate the difficulty of the class,they will let it slide, although it doesn't sound like you are considering attending.</p>

<p>There is probably a similar contract for the other UC campuses, but I can't locate them online right now...</p>

<p>For the UCI...when they say senior-year gpa....they mean 2 SEMESTERS right? Since senior year consist of not only 1 semester but 2 semesters. </p>

<p>UCR is just only no D/F.....correct me if I am wrong.</p>

<p>how do they calcuate the senior year gpa?
is the gpa an average of both semesters or just first / just second/ or indidvudally??</p>

<p>i heard that san diego and LA require an overrall senior gpa of 3.0, so they average the two semesters. I'm pretty sure that berkeley requires a 3.0 both semesters though.</p>

<p>"Getting straight A+'s during senior year is not going to change their admission decisions in favor of you."</p>

<p>what about if you file an appeal and they see that you have straight A+'s?</p>

<p>no..they don't take your senior grades into account when you appeal... only new information you forgot to put on your original application like you entered one of grades from 10th grade wrong like you had an A but you accidently entered a b grade.</p>

<p>what about a D first semester...but your overall first semester gpa is still a 3.08..? but then for second semester there's only A's and B's...?</p>

<p>No D............</p>

<p>Man I am so happy....just found out </p>

<p>I got a 3.6gpa my 1st semester..... with 4 A's 2 B's</p>

<p>All I need is to get a 2.6 gpa my next semester to stay competitve</p>

<p>you sure about that? I thought some UCs want the 3.0 each semester, without anything below a C, as their official policy. Make sure you know what the policy is of the school you plan on going to, so that you don't find yourself out of luck.</p>

<p>are the required grades unweighed or weighed cuz right now i'm borderline and at the mercy of my teacher :/</p>

<p>Depends on the school. Berkeley uses unweighted, and you can send them a letter if you don't meet this. Others have different policies.</p>

<p>UCSD is weighted... both semesters are averaged out.</p>
