<p>You should report any of the following situations:
...
"If you received any D or F grades, or if your SENIOR YEAR unweighted GPA will fall below 3.00."</p>

<p>Isn't that 1 total gpa? Like if someone asked you for your junior year gpa you would say "3.5," not "3.0 and 4.0."</p>

<p>yeah i think thats right</p>

<p>but does anyone know for sure?</p>

<p>I will know for sure by tomorrow.</p>

<p>I called UCLA today and spoke with an admissions officer. I asked her if it was 3.0 unweighted for each semesters or 3.0 overall, and she said that information isn't released until prospective students get their letters. </p>

<p>I do have some good news though. I asked her what the policy was LAST year, and she said it was 3.0 OVERALL. So there's a good chance it could be the same this year.</p>

<p>Cal didn't have any information at all for me; the lady I spoke to didn't know anything.</p>
