Will my GPA change?

<p>I go to a private school and well we follow a different grading scale than public school. If my school were to follow the same scale my GPA would be way higher than what it is now and i could probably get into a good college. So my question is will certain colleges convert my GPA to follow their scale? because colleges have the same scale as public school and i really want to get into a good college but i am worried.</p>

<p>Colleges look at you within the context of your school. They’ll see how your school calculates GPA and will adjust how they look at your GPA based on that.</p>

<p>For example, if a school graded on a 1.0 scale, they wouldn’t see “1.0” and think “failed.”</p>

<p>Some colleges recalculate GPAs, others don’t. All of them, though, will consider your GPA based on your school and how it is calculated.</p>

<p>Thank you so much! You have no idea how happy i am to know that, i really appreciate it!</p>
