<p>When I am applying to grad schools like Medical school...do I report my freshman year GPA if I transferred into another school as a Sophomore? I did so well during my freshman year of college I would REALLY be ticked off if all the hard work went to waste..</p>
<p>If the answer is yes...wouldn't it be ridiciulous and unfair if someone who got a 2.1 was let loose because he transferred?</p>
<p>Your transcripts will be sent from each college you've attended and an overall GPA will be calculated by averaging the institutional GPAs together, based on the number of credits that each GPA represents.</p>
<p>So what you're saying is my freshman year gpa (3.8), in the end, WILL be counted towards grad school admission based on the credit weight it holds? I hope you are right because I am really scared that all my hard work might be thrown out the window.</p>
<p>No, your GPA doesn't transfer.</p>
<p>Yes, and I am positive. Keep in mind also that ALL college work, including even CC classes taken during high school, are factored into the overall GPA, which can really suck for people that weren't really trying at that time.</p>

<p>Your GPA doesn't transfer to the new school so you'll start out with a 0.0. It does count for grad/prof school admissions.</p>
<p>I am not asking if it will transfer to my new undergraduate school, obviously it won't. What I am asking is if GRADUATE school will see my FRESHMAN year grades.</p>
<p>EDIT: Thanks Brand_182, it really is good to know that. Good to know I didn't kill myself for nothing.</p>
