So, I have my ADN and had a program GPA of 3.86. If I obtain my BSN degree from WGU will they average my ADN GPA with my WGU GPA to bring it up from the 3.0 that they give for everyone who passes? I just wonder because some programs require a 3.2 or a 3.0 on a 4 point grading scale. How would that work? I am trying to avoid calling a bunch of different places and getting different answers from people who don't know what they're talking about! lol

Your GPA from WGU will be 3.0, for the purposes of transferring into a master's program.
When you send transcripts to a school when applying for a master's program, they generally ask for your GPA from your most recent degree. You don't claim a GPA, you simply send them your transcripts from all the schools you attended.
If you're interested in a master's program that requires greater than a 3.0, then WGU would probably not be the school for you.
