Hello newbie at CC. I am a rising junior in TX and planning to change school. My current W GPA is around 3.9 with 17% class rank. New school gpa will be around 3.5 (use different gpa calculations…90%-3.0, 91% - 3.1 …100% - 4.0) with 10% class rank. I will be applying to TX colleges (UT, A&M, UTD, SMU , Trinity and Baylor). Is low gpa on my transcript going to impact my college admission?
No, the lower GPA isn’t going to matter because the majority of the schools that you’re applying to admit you based on your class rank (10%). If you have strong test scores, you should be fine.
What about private schools?
