Hey, I'm trying to figure out my GPA for applying to the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay. Can anyone recommend an online GPA calculator that takes into account their specific requirements? Thanks!
To calculate your GPA for UW-Green Bay admissions, you'll need to use a weighted 4.0 scale, where A = 4.0, B = 3.0, etc. Keep in mind that UW-Green Bay generally considers only your high school core courses—English, math, science, social studies, and foreign language.
Here's a simple method to calculate your GPA manually:
1. Assign a point value to each final grade you've received in your core courses, using this scale:
- A (90-100%) = 4.0
- B (80-89%) = 3.0
- C (70-79%) = 2.0
- D (60-69%) = 1.0
- F (below 60%) = 0.0
2. Add up all the point values assigned in step 1.
3. Divide the sum from step 2 by the total number of core courses you've taken.
4. The result is your GPA on a 4.0 scale.
If you prefer an online GPA calculator, there are several options available, such as the one provided by CollegeVine (https://www.collegevine.com/gpa-calculator). While this calculator might not be tailored specifically for UW-Green Bay, it can give you a good estimate. Just remember to only input your core classes as mentioned earlier. Good luck with your application!
