Does NU compare transcripts?

<p>Stupid question, I know. I was just wondering, because I applied Early Action and I got deferred. My GPA has been recalculated now, so both my weighted and unweighted went up. Also, I have more community service hours, and I've busted my behind to get straight A's. </p>

<p>My grades this year are an "upward" trend, technically from before. I've never had so many AP classes, and I usually have a mix of A's and B's</p>

<p>I just want to know if they will compare the transcript they got sent in October/November to the one that is sent now.</p>

<p>They will look at your midyear report, as they do for any RD applicant.</p>

<p>I know that, I just want to know if they will compare my mid year report with the report they got for applying Early Action</p>

<p>But what do you mean “compare”? If your As and Bs all stayed the same, and your school did something weird to the numerical calcuation, it shouldn’t matter- because Northeastern recalculates gpa anyway. If your actual grades changed, like you had an I from last year that turned into a B, then it’s not like they are going to comb through it to look for the differences. They may or may not recalculate your gpa, aside from adding in midyear grades. You’d be better off writing them a letter about how your gpa changed. “Recalculated” by itself sounds a bit sketchy.</p>
