Bringing my gpa up

<p>If i went to community college for a semester (starting september) to bring my GPA up, how much could it rise in just one semester?</p>

<p>I currently have a 2.5 i want to raise it up to atleast a 3.0</p>

<p>My question also is if i only went for one semester and kept a 4.0 than applied to colleges would they judge me off that gpa or my old one?</p>

<p>I don't have first hand knowledge, but my impression is that the two gpas would be kept separate. But is the 2.5 your HS gpa, or your GPA at another college/university? That could make a difference. HS will be kept separate most likely.</p>

<p>The 2.5 was my high school gpa.</p>

<p>I took a year off to work full time, now i want to take a semester at the local community college so i can raise or redeem my GPA and than apply regular decision to a better college for next fall.</p>

<p>So i was wondering if they are going to base my application off of my new GPA or my old one.</p>

<p>anyone feel free to pm me if you have any experience on the subject.</p>
