GPA form
The grid below is based in part on the parameters used by AADSAS for calculating GPA. To complete the grid below, use the GPA Calculator
(Excel doc, provided at http://www.pdx.edu/clas/health-sciences-advising-letter-service-0) to obtain the data required to fill out the grid below. A
Word document of this grid can also be found at http://www.pdx.edu/clas/health-sciences-advising-letter-service-0 for use in submitting your HSA
materials. When filling in the GPA calculation grid below, consider the following:
1.
Give GPA to two decimal places, for example, 3.46.
2.
If a course is repeated, compute both grades into the GPA.
3.
BCP = all courses in biology, chemistry, and physics, Science = all BCP courses plus math and other science courses
4.
Non-Science = all courses not classified as science, Total = all courses
