How Does JHU calculate unweighted/weighted GPA?

<p>Every university seems to do it differently. Does it include freshman year? How many classes can be given the AP/honors bump? Does it look at pluses and minuses?</p>

<p>When we are filling out the Common Application, what GPA do we put down? Unweighted? (9-12, 10-12, 10-11, 9-11: WHICH ONE?) Weighted? (Do I put the weight to all my AP/honors classes?)</p>

<p>We do not review self-reported GPAs so we do not care what you post on the Common Application.</p>

<p>Is there a separate form where we enter the grades we received for each course (I don’t see one on the common application) or does JHU want us to send in a transcript along with our application (some schools only want the transcript after admission…)?</p>

<p>When applying to Johns Hopkins University you must have an official transcript submitted by your high school. We do not review a student’s self-reported grades. We need official records. You may want to review our list of requirements if you plan to apply to Johns Hopkins: [Johns</a> Hopkins University Office of Undergraduate Admissions - Apply - Deadlines and Requirements](<a href=“http://apply.jhu.edu/apply/deadlines.html]Johns”>http://apply.jhu.edu/apply/deadlines.html)</p>

<p>Thank you so much for your speedy responses. I did plan to apply; however my 10-12 UW GPA is rather weak for a competitive school like JHU…so I’m on the fence right now.</p>
