GPA issue
I have taken a few correspondence courses from an outreach college, and I have got all grade A on those courses. No single credit was assigned for those courses. (Points 0.000, cum GPA 0.000). My question is : may I send it in to boost my GPA, since all A = 4.0 GPA?
Thank you for your advice.

Re: GPA issue
You are REQUIRED to send in all transcripts.
If you took these courses BEFORE receiving your first bachelor's degree, then yes, it will boost your LSAC GPA.

Re: GPA issue
I have read two articles about the LSAC GPA policy
1, Guide to the LSAC: Transcripts, GPA, and More
http://www.top-law-schools.com/forums/v ... 22&t=80326
Pass/Fail classes in which you passed, classes you withdrew from non-punitively
(i.e. withdrawal-passing), or classes for which no credit was assigned for the
course (does not mean classes you failed) do not factor into your GPA.
2, US/Canadian Transcript Summarization
http://www.lsac.org/aboutlsac/policies/ ... marization
Grades Excluded From Conversion
Those assigned no measure of credit by the issuing institution, regardless of the grade.
A No Credit grade that does not signify failure and for which no attempt at credit was made

Re: GPA issue
No credit was assigned by your home institution, but was there any credit assigned by the school where you took the classes?
