“I just applied to Wake as a transfer, and if I get accepted, I plan on majoring in business. What can you say about grade deflation and average GPAs for students in Calloway?”

I have yet to encounter any grade deflation at Wake, so I can’t really comment on that part of this. Students in Calloway tend to have lower GPAs then other students at Wake, but it’s Calloway so it’s to be expected. The reason behind this is the tough core curriculum at Calloway.

Students who don’t want all the work that Calloway gives generally do an Econ major with an Entrepreneurship minor, but almost everyone who gets into Calloway stays there. They have a great program going on, and if it’s any consolation, the Calloway seniors who I know all have jobs lined up next year with a few exceptions.

I know their GPAs are pretty good on average. You will be spending more time in the library, but you’re going to learn a LOT. Also, GPA varies by major in Calloway – some majors are more difficult than others.
