Updated GPA
Posted: Wed Jan 08, 2014 7:24 pm
I submitted my transcript a little over a year ago, as I had originally planned on applying last cycle. The GPA listed on that transcript is 3.76. However, my current GPA is 3.80 (possibly 3.81 on my final transcript). I have an incomplete in a course that will be expunged at the end of this month, which is why I have postponed submitting my updated transcript.
I will be submitting applications within the next week and was wondering if it would it be acceptable for me to list my updated GPA on my resume, in order to indicate that there will be an increase on my final transcript (which will be submitted in February). On the other hand, I worry that this may appear as though I am trying to mislead the admissions committee. Then again, perhaps it won't make any difference, as the committee's primary concern is the LSAC report. Thoughts?
