Ramapo GPA calculator?

I'm a junior getting ready to apply to colleges, and I'm particularly interested in Ramapo. Does anyone know the most accurate GPA calculator to use when calculating your GPA to see if it matches Ramapo's requirements? Thanks!

While I can't point you to a specific GPA calculator tailored to Ramapo College of New Jersey, you can still use a general GPA calculator to get an idea of where you stand. Keep in mind that GPA scale and the way GPA is calculated may slightly vary between high schools and colleges. However, using a general calculator should still give you a rough estimate.

Ramapo College uses a 4.0 scale, with A=4, B=3, C=2, D=1, and F=0. Pluses and minuses account for a difference of 0.3, so an A- would equal 3.7, while a B+ would equal 3.3. To calculate your unweighted GPA:

1. Convert each of your course grades to their respective GPA points (use the scale mentioned above).

2. Add up all the GPA points you have.

3. Divide the total GPA points by the number of classes you took.

If your school uses a weighted GPA, don't forget to take into account the additional weight for honors, AP, and IB courses. Typically, an additional 0.5 points are added for honors courses and 1 point for AP/IB courses.

Ramapo College does not have a strict minimum GPA requirement, but the middle 50% of admitted students typically have a GPA between 3.0 and 3.7.

It's important to remember that colleges review applications holistically, by considering not only your GPA but also your course rigor, test scores (if available), extracurricular activities, essays, and letters of recommendation. So even if your GPA is slightly below the average range, you could still have a strong application if other aspects of your profile are strong. Good luck!
