Are the GPA of courses taken at a community college factored into your overall GPA?

<p>I'm planning to take a community college course but I'm not sure if colleges will factor it into my GPA when I apply. Do they only take your high school GPA or do they combine both?</p>

<p>I'm taking the CC course just for interest and I will not send the community college transcript to my high school. So if I took a class at a community college and got a 4.0 GPA, and my high school GPA is 4.2, the college course would actually bring my overall GPA down?</p>

<p>Wait... do colleges only take your High school GPA into account (for comparison purposes) or do they combine community college courses with your high school GPA to determine an overall GPA that they use to compare applicants? I will not be sending the community college transcript so it will not combine with my high school GPA</p>

<p>Well usually high school students don’t take CC classes lol.'</p>

<p>I’m sure colleges just take your high school transcript into account.</p>

<p>Ask your counselor. They don’t for my school. In my school, they simply show up, but aren’t factored in.</p>
