<p>I saw somewhere their average weighted gpa is 4.44. My friend who lives in NC says that they calculate weighted gpa by Ap(6), honors (5), And regular (4). Here in Virginia the ap are on a 5 scale not 6. This would make my gpa a 4.7. I live in va but I can get instate status for Unc. Is this how they calc. Gpa?</p>
<p>Bunppppp,…,.</p>
<p>That is a good question for the Admissions Office…</p>
<p>You are correct in how NC public schools prepare a weighted GPA and I am sure that UNC manages to consider any calculation differences in their selection process (starting with unweighted GPA and then considering academic rigor, # of AP & advanced classes and your success in them).</p>
<p>UNC takes in a lot of OOS applications each year. They know how to handle it and how you compare to their in-state scales and standards, so don’t worry about how they look at it. Just make sure the rest of your application that you <em>can</em> control is up to par.</p>
