<p>What really good universities do not look at freshman grades because i got a 3.0 gpa freshman year. And im planning on doing way better my next 3 yrs. I know UC Berkeley only looks at the gpa of sophmore and junior years, so i might apply there. Any one know any other collges that dont count freshman grades?
thanks</p>
<p>anyone got any answers?</p>
<p>I think the Cal States don't count freshman year either, but they also count senior year.</p>
<p>The entire University of California system doesn't count freshman grades. :rolleyes:</p>
<p>are there any other top universities out there that dont count freshman grades?</p>
<p>Stanford doesn't.</p>
<p>is Princeton one too? And are there any other top colleges that dont look at freshman grades??</p>
<p>you shouldnt just apply to schools that odnt count the freshman gpa because most schools will see a rising gpa and kind of just write off your freshman year... plus, assume weighted for the next two years you have, say, a, 4.2, that with a 3.0 is still around a 3.7/3.8ish which is competitive especially with your rising grades. so dont worry about colleges that do count freshman grades, cuz most dont put heavy emphasis on them anyway</p>
<p>princeton and stanford are the two most notable privates that dont count frosh HS grades</p>
<p>Thanks for all ur replies</p>
