<p>Will my application be hurt impact if I don't state a GPA?</p>

<p>I talked to my guidance counselor a while ago, and she said that our school doesn't calculate them, which is typical of most Canadian schools I guess...</p>

<p>On the Common App, under Academics, there is a pull down menu for GPA. If your school uses a 0-100 scale, select “100” on the “GPA Scale” and put down your numerical average under “Cumulative GPA.”</p>

<p>So does this “numerical average” include all the courses I’ve taken in all four years of high school?</p>

<p>Yes, for all 3 years (freshman, sophomore, junior years). Your school should be able to calculate a numerical average for you – for example, they should be able to tell you if you have a 92.4 average or a 98.7 etc.</p>
