Announcements

U-M no longer Recalculating GPA: After careful consideration, the University of Michigan will no longer recalculate grade point averages for freshman and transfer applicants to the University. For the evaluation of our entire Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall 2010 applicant pools, we will utilize the cumulative grade point average posted on the student’s high school transcript, for freshman applicants, or college transcript, for transfer applicants. This policy applies to all freshman and transfer applications processed by the Office of Undergraduate Admissions.

The University remains committed to utilizing an individualized and holistic review process. The strength of the student’s individual curriculum challenge, grade trend, anticipated number of academic courses completed by the student’s anticipated enrollment date at the University and class rank [(if provided) for freshman applicants only] will remain the primary focus of the academic assessment of a student’s evaluation process.

For more information, please see our FAQs about U-M no longer recalculating GPA. Please contact the Office of Undergraduate Admissions by phone 734.764.7433 or by submitting an Ask a Question if you have further questions. Please also visit our website for more information regarding our evaluation process.
