Hi,
I am currently applying to the Weber honors college at SDSU and they ask for weighted/unweighted GPA, should I use the GPA provided by my school? (I am a California resident).
The CSU GPA I calculated when applying does not specify weighted vs unweighted
The CSU GPA is the capped weighted GPA. Not all schools weight the same as the CSU calculation so I would list your unweighted and Capped CSU weighted for the application.
Averages for Webers:
Typically, the average SAT (math + verbal) is approximately 1345, the average ACTis approximately 30, and the average high school weighted GPA is approximately 4.14.

My kid computed her weighted and unweighted using the calculator provided at CSU web site. It happened to be significantly higher than what her high school computed, because all of her unfortunate Bs (all but one) happened to be in the 9th grade (and one in the 8th grade for Geometry Honors), and these are dropped by CSU. She ended up with 3.92 unweighted and 4.42 weighted. I hope she makes it to Weber, with SAT 1460 (770 math), because at the moment, among the schools that admitted her already, it is a battle between CU-Boulder and SDSU. And I am rooting for California!!!
@ElenaParent: she definitely looks qualified. Best of luck to her.
