<p>im trying to do the exact same thing as you. i've previously been rejected for Fall 2008 so i moved my application to Winter 2009 as request. Your stats are excellent and you should have absolutely no trouble in getting in for winter 2009. you should've gotten in as a freshman anyway. Trust me, I live in Ann Arbor and know quite alot about UM and you're definitley in.</p>

<p>How did you get the UofM calculated figure? How do they calculate the GPA differently? I am an Industrial Engineer from Northeastern Univ with a 3.696 Freshman GPA. What is that in UofM GPA?</p>

<p>Once your completed application is received, we recalculate your GPA into a "Michigan GPA". This is based only on core, academic courses, which include:</p>

<p>English
Science
Mathematics
Social Science or History
Foreign Language
Computer Programming
Grades are determined using an unweighted 4.0 scale: </p>

<p>A (including plus or minus ) = 4.0
B (including plus or minus) = 3.0
C (including plus or minus) = 2.0
D (including plus or minus) = 1.0
E or F = 0.0.
Freshmen: No extra (GPA) weight is given to Honors, Accelerated, or Advanced Placement courses; however, the difficulty of a student's curriculum is taken into consideration within the admissions process. Additionally, only courses taken 10th and 11th grade are used to calculate the GPA.</p>

<p>Transfers: The Office of Undergraduate Admissions recalculates the grade point average (GPA) for transfer students based upon the same 4.0 scale (see above). The GPA is calculated using all academic courses; however, students will not receive credit for courses in which they earn less than a "C."</p>
