College Admission GPA

<p>when they say the average GPA of students admitted last year for whatever college was like, let's say 4.3 or something, does that mean their GPA the end of junior year, or first semester of senior year included???
i never understood this because i thought regular decision college apps had to be sent around december; however, 1st semester senior grades come out january...
i'm super concerned about this because junior year only, i'd have a 4.2, but with senior year 1 semester if i get straight As i'd have almost a 4.4...</p>

<p>cmon, someone answer pwease???</p>

<p>a)it would likely be for end of junior year
b)don’t even look at that. It averages weighted gpas so it’s useless because each school has different weightage systems.</p>
