Question about GPA

<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>anyone? please?</p>

<p>I've never heard of it being done before. I wonder if all schools would do that.</p>

<p>In NJ its called college jumpstart where you take community college classes. If you failed or were sick it can add to your GPA.</p>

<p>anyone else?</p>
