<p>The only way to increase your GPA is to get better grades; the success factors don’t increase GPA. Think of the USF admission matrix (link below) as 3 dimensional where GPA is matched with your test scores first and then success factors are applied.</p>

<p>Print a copy of the matrix and study it to get better grasp on how it works. Remember it is a guide only, but it seems to match up pretty tight with USF admits. Take a copy of matrix to your high school guidance counselor and go over it with her…she’s/he’s seen it before if you attend a Florida high school! <a href=“http://usfweb2.usf.edu/admissions/pdf/counselor-grid.pdf[/url]”>http://usfweb2.usf.edu/admissions/pdf/counselor-grid.pdf&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
