<p>I totally ruined my 9th grade GPA, and I am pretty sure I won't be admitted in anywhere that will consider 9th grade GPA, so I need to know places that disregard them.</p>
<p>Does MIT/California Institute of Technology consider 9th grade GPA?</p>
<p>And, if you know of any other univ.s that ignore 9th grade GPA, can you leave a reply?</p>
<p>Thank you.</p>
<p>Suggest you check the website of the schools you mentioned to find out.</p>
<p>Also, Stanford doesn't consider them.</p>
<p>The UCs and Princeton don't consider freshman.</p>
<p>The University of Michigan, too. And, UChicago (I think).</p>
<p>Well S&P say they don't but they consider Frosh grades but they do consider Class Rank in admissions, so in effect Frosh grades do count. </p>
<p>The UCs do not consider class rank, but they do see the grades -- upward trend is always better than the reverse.</p>
<p>Most colleges don't make too big a deal about freshman year, because that is usually everybody's worst year. They would rather your grades up each year.</p>
<p>Good! I was wondering the same thing.
I mean I only got a B in one class in the 9th grade but it does hurt my GPA! I just didn't take school as seriously back then. Never even thought about GPA/College admissions..etc. haha</p>
