What is a GPA?
Why is your GPA Important?Colleges, scholarship committees, and employers will judge your application based on criteria including your GPA. If you have a high GPA, it shows you worked hard in high school and will do the same in college or a job. If you have a low GPA, those reviewing your application may think you won’t work hard in college or in a job.
