<p>Just curious if people have an idea of how important the junior/senior gpa for getting into grad school. I have a 3.11 overall and a 3.35 junior/senior year gpa. Will this help.</p>
<p>I’ve always had the impression grad schools care more about your upper division GPA than your cumulative.</p>
<p>There’s your cumulative GPA, Jr./Sr. GPA, major GPA, and non-major GPA. I’ve had applications that asked for some and not others. How much those 4 GPAs differ is different for everybody and I don’t think it matters much.</p>
<p>There’s no senior year gpa when a lot people apply their senior year 1st semester denizen… Even when you do send it at the end, it’s not gonna take away your admission unless something stupid happened.</p>
<p>^Then I’m guessing you put only your Jr. GPA. No point in arguing, this is what some applications ask for I’ve seen. Just reporting the facts. :)</p>
<p>Most of them look at your last 60 credits (or however that translates on the quarter system). </p>
<p>For many people applying to grad school while they’re still in undergrad, that means their Soph and Junior year GPA.</p>
<p>For others, maybe those that have already graduated and are working in a professional environment but chose to apply to grad school, that means their Junior and Senior year GPA.</p>
<p>In reality, the grad school admission committees are probably picking and choosing selected classes you took (the ones that apply to the grad program, aka the prerequisites) and determining your “relative GPA” for their standards.</p>
