I only applied to UConn and I can see my "gpa by transcript" and "cumulative gpa by transcript" calculations..you go to the Check Status tab and download your app under "My Programs"

that's what i thought would happen and it didn't for me that's why i called and she said it wouldn't show up..now i'm nervous that she didn't know what she was talking about...

Hmm that's strange..I'm sure they got everything that they needed if your transcripts were all verified. I can't see any nursing gpa's or anything like that, I think they just averaged my undergrad gpa with the prerequisite classes I put into the application. I also did the same for my proof of enrollment. I scanned a copy of my unofficial transcript into the documents section.

Hey HuskyPride13! I'm new to the forum as well! From what I've seen, UConn takes the higher of the two scores for the prerequisite gpa, I don't think they average them. However, I'm pretty sure that the grade still affects the cumulative gpa like you said. I also don't believe that they limit how many classes you can retake, but they did say that they do take notice of how many times you've had to retake a course. Hope this helps!

Hi Bail1287!

Welcome! Thank you for the reply as well. I am trying to confirm with UConn about this and I will update the forum once I have an update.

Best of Luck!

soooo when do you guys think we should expect to hear back

Eglute · Jul 6, 2017

I really hope by the end of July,,,

I ended up requesting transcript from QVCC that I will be taking Genetics at (the rest were completed at TRCC).

I wouldn't worry about GPA. If they have any questions, they will email you. I got an email for clarification on the very next day after I submitted my application. I am pretty sure they care and I heard from other people that Dorine is very nice.

Does any of you have this book for sale: "Essential Genetics: A Genomics Perspective" by Daniel L. Hartl ISBN: 9781449686888. I am trying to get the cheapest copy and then thinking of purchasing access code. It's my last prereq. Ill be taking in fall.

Did anyone hear back from them yet? I am getting nervous,,,

nope but it's only been two weeks..they are notorious for taking weeks and weeks to get back with decisions. i'm getting nervous too though. i emailed dorine earlier this week with a question about something important and she still hasn't replied so she's either out on vacation or they're really busy reviewing applications

pink_rose2 · Jul 20, 2017

sooo has anyone heard anything or have any kind of update??

Eglute · Jul 21, 2017

No, but I can't stop thinking of it every day,,,my stress level is going up too,,, partially about the waiting, partially, how Ill be able to make it financially next year,,, Good news, i just found out L&M has ongoing employment program for new grads.
