<p>Does Columbia University recalculate the GPA or do they use the given GPA from different schools?</p>
<p>Our school has GPA from 80 -100 A, 70-80 B and so forth. (From Canada)</p>
<p>I am really curious. Thanks^^</p>
<p>They are going to recalculate that. Yeah...</p>
<p>In my experience, there will be someone in the admissions office who is specifically trained in the evaluation of foreign transcripts. I don't know whether or not your GPA will be re-calculated, but it willl certainly be put in a framework that enables the admission committee to judge your level of achievement.</p>
