<p>OKAY, I’M GOING TO TRY AND BE LITTLE MS. CLARIFY-ER.</p>
<p>This past weekend I attended War Eagle Days. Being an oos, legacy applicant, I was wondering about the Presidential/Charter/etc. scholarships, and was SUPER confused. I called my personal counselor (he’s the SWF Auburn representative and will be reviewing my app) and asked him for the details. Here’s what he told me:</p>
<p>Auburn’s scholarship GPAs are determined off what weighting YOUR high school gives. Basically, they’re giving you a free pass. They count non-academic classes (all those wonderful A’s in LMS and personal fitness do factor in :]), and they allow you to weight honors and AP. So, for instance, at my school we are required to take all honors classes, and have the option for APs. I will get .5 for every honors, and 1.0 for every AP. Therefore, my GPA is way higher than other colleges, like the “UF GPA” or the “UGA GPA”.
However the transcript your school sends displays your GPA (weighted or unweighted to your pleasure) that is how they read it
Sorry if you still don’t get it, I tried to explain it as clearly as possible.</p>
