To the best of my knowledge, UGA considers journalism as an English course thus it’s included in the academic GPA. I found that the HOPE calculator - which includes only courses in the four core disciplines - was almost identical to my UGA GPA.</p>

If you’re very interested in majoring in journalism you might want to give UGA a second look - generally Grady College of Journalism is ranked in the top five to ten J-schools nationally. Also, have you checked out schools like Berry? That’s one of a few schools in GA with a LAC “feel” but you might have to search to find them as their names generally don’t come up that often, especially on this forum (which isn’t to say that they are not great schools).</p>
