I know it's early, but let's get a thread going. 2015-hopefuls, share your thoughts, concerns, questions, and experiences here!

Humber told me my GPA is a 3.5 for the 60 credits I need there (which equal 10 credits), not sure if other schools use that same GPA scale though

Can anyone tell me what that is in % to confirm

Thanks alianne! I have a 3.6 in my last 10 full courses, and a 3.3 cGPA. I already have a previous degree.

Oh thats awesome! Congrats if that is your first choice. I am still waiting I think I have a 3.5 GPA if I calculated it correct but calculating GPA is still foreign to me haha. Do you mind me asking your average was in the last 10 credits?

I use the GPA calculator on the U of T website. I was unsure of how to calculate my GPA too, before I found it. Just google "gpa calculator U of T" and it's the first one that pops up!

Thanks :) I have a 9.5 on the McMaster scale which is around a 3.5 for my last 10 credits. My cGPA is a 7, which would be a 2.7 on the 4.0 scale.

Oh I wonder why I am not in/ maybe I did the GPA conversion wrong and I am lower than a 3.57. I have an average of 81%.

I'm external. I go to Western so we don't use GPA. I think my cGPA was 3.4 (79%) and GPA from last year (84%) and this year (my 5th year) (91%) was 3.9. I don't really know how to calculate it properly. if they look at my 3rd year i only had a 74%

No they will look at your last 10 credits. So if you took half credits last semester they will look at those and count "x" credits back that are left over. Im at UWO too in my third year but graduating this year. I took 2 half credits this year so they will look at those as 1 /10 credits, and then take all my second year, and 4 of my first year. Hopefully that makes sense. You have an AWESOME GPA congrats! I'm only about an 81% (which I believe is about a 3.5ish GPA), but 86% this year so far (but it will likely go down as my half credits were easy).

jlouro - is Trent your first choice?

oh that really sucks. so they look at a lot of my 3rd year... why am i here for another semester lol! I'd had 82% so that makes 3.7 GPA ish?

No, trent is my last choice cause it's the longest program (28 months) vs western & ubc is 18 months (my first choices) and everything else is 24 months so their all equal to me. I just wanna be done with school! Good for you though, my 1st and 2nd year marks are horrible. I either got 60s in my electives or 80-90s in my science courses. I wish they considered that

hey guys! i applied to UofT, Humber, and Nipissing. cGPA 2.4 (1st and 2nd year was disastrous), last 10 full coureses (i.e. last 2 years) GPA: 3.7.

Already got refused at Humber (figured I would since my cGPA was so low). Good luck to all!
