FAQs:

What is the UC GPA?

The UC GPA is a weighted calculation of a student’s academic performance in “a-g” courses completed in the 10th and 11th grade, as well as any additional courses taken in the summer following 9th grade.

What are “a-g” courses?

“a-g” courses are a set of high school courses that the UC system considers to be essential preparation for college. These include courses in history, English, mathematics, laboratory science, language other than English, and visual and performing arts.

How is the UC GPA calculated?

The UC GPA is calculated using a weighted system that assigns extra points for “a-g” courses taken in the 10th and 11th grade, as well as UC-approved honors, Advanced Placement (AP), International Baccalaureate (IB), and college courses. The weighted UC GPA is calculated by dividing the total grade point value by the number of “a-g” courses completed in the 10th and 11th grade.

What is the maximum UC GPA?

The maximum UC GPA is 4.00, as it is based on a 4.00 grading scale.

What if I attended a school that does not use a 4.00 grading scale?

The UC system will convert grades from different grading scales to a 4.00 scale for GPA calculation purposes. This conversion is done using a standardized formula that takes into account the range and distribution of grades at the school.

Can I improve my UC GPA after submitting my application?

It depends on the timing of the improvement. If you have not yet been admitted, any improvements to your GPA before the admission decision is made will be considered. However, if you have already been admitted, any changes to your GPA may not be considered unless they are significant and reported to the UC campus.

What about classes taken after high school graduation?

Classes taken after high school graduation are not included in the UC GPA calculation, but can be used to fulfill the “a-g” course requirements for admission to the UC system.
