First major question in GPA for all high school students is if your hs is on a 100 scale rather than 4.0 scale what is is because 4.0 scales are too vague for high school applicants.

@transferapp1997 my school is not on a 100 scale, we go by GPA. I am not sure what the max GPA is.

I can say with some degree of certainty that you should get some financial aid. My family makes just slightly more than that and I get a lot in grants. Of course, there are no guarantees, but you can probably expect some aid.

@tiva_mcabby5 based off of financial aid calculators, I feel the schools are very fair in price and I will be able to manage the estimated net price.
