<p>Just out of curiosity, if I'm applying RD, typically early January for most colleges, will my first semester senior grades be calculated into my GPA? Or will they be separate?
My school is divided by quarters. 1st quarter is over around Thanksgiving, and then 2nd quarter is over on January 30th. If anyone has a similar school system, please tell me what your school does.</p>
<p>Everything that’s a final grade on your transcript will be evaluated. I would imagine your school probably sends out an update after 1/30. Just check w/your school. For sure, your 1st qtr grades will be sent.</p>
<p>In our school district, senior grades are NOT calculated in your GPA until the end of the academic year. The mid-year grades (i.e., first semester) are sent out as a supplement to every school you apply to. Also, if you have Naviance, the grades you see there in the scattergrams are for graduation GPAs not junior year.</p>
