<p>I have a friend who is a senior and has just finished the college admission process. His highschool gpa was only around a 3.5, but he consistenly took online and local college courses, as well as some high school courses online, throuhgout high school. Hes gotten all A's in all of the extra courses he took outside of schools. </p>
<p>When it was time to send college applications in, he talked to his college counselor and what she did was average his high school gpa with his gpa of classes taken outside of school. So he had a 3.75 GPA, and this is what was on his secodnary school report. THe school does not rank, btw.</p>
<p>Have any of you heard of schools doing this? Is it common?</p>
<p>bumpanyonebumpp please.</p>
<p>this can be done. In my hs, students can take classes in local colleges and have those courses added to their transcript</p>
<p>Hmm, I know that my sister's high school offers online coursework, which can pretty much be taken for easy As as far as I understand. Is this what you're referring to, or are you talking about University of Phoenix / something similar?</p>

<p>if this is the case, then I want my two As from Columbia University math courses to be factored into my gpa, which is a measly 3.5 right now.</p>
