When UCSB reports gpa is it W, UW, or UC?

<p><a href="http://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/admissions/pdf/ucsb_chart.pdf%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/admissions/pdf/ucsb_chart.pdf&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>They say that 91.8% of students with a 4.0 or better gpa were admitted. Is this the unweighted gpa, the weighted gpa according to the high school or the UC-calculated gpa?</p>

<p>I was a little surprised that only 27% of applicants with a GPA of 3.3-3.69 were admitted so I was thinking it must be the UC gpa that was reported? But maybe UCSB just is that selective.</p>

<p>Wow, never saw that. I’m pretty sure that’s weighted.</p>

<p>YEAHH!! I’ve been wondering that too…
Anyone know for sure??</p>

<p>It’s UC GPA. All stats reported by UC schools are UC GPA.
It’s definitely not UW. Not W, either, since different schools have different grading systems. It’s really hard for the UC’s to generalize them altogether.</p>

<p>Thanks! That’s good to know because my UC gpa falls perfectly in the range but my UW gpa definitely does not.</p>

<p>UC gpa 3.86 (10th-11th), good essay, EC 300 hrs, courseload many Honors & AP - chances? This year will be hard for everyone with reduced enrollment.also SAT 1720 ACT 25</p>

<p>The reduced enrollment won’t be THAT much I don’t think. Everything looks great for you and I think you’d get in, but your scores are a bit low. I still think you’ve got a good shot though.</p>

<p>UCSB enrolled over 4,800 (they severely overenrolled from their target of 4,200) for Fall 2009 but plan to enroll only 3,900 for Fall 2010, so this year’s freshman class should be a lot smaller.</p>

<p>If it was unweighted, 4.0+ wouldn’t be possible.</p>

<p>just felt as though i should bump this thread since lots of people are anxious about the decisions coming up</p>
