[求助]关于GPA 一个奇怪问题

有没有人研究生成绩单上面没有学分的呀? 偶刚才算GPA的时候发现偶研究生成绩单上面居然没有学分,光有成绩。昏倒呀。(本科的成绩单上面是有的。)


碰到这种情况,应该怎么办呀?

还有“pass”怎么给分呀?我要是不客气的给个4.0是不是太过分了?

this happens a lot with grad schools. usually (at least in the US), grad level courses from the same department or program carry the same number of credits. So the credit hours will factor out when you calculate the GPA. But you must consult the registrar office of your grad school and ask for a documentation regarding the exact number of credits. Registrar should have a written policy for this type of question. Have paperwork attached to your official transcript. I think it's better to do this now, because more than likely, B-school will ask for an explanation with regards to your grad level grade.  Why not do it now since you have the time?

As for pass/no-pass grade, the generally accepted policy (in the US) is to exclude it from your GPA calculation. I don't think you can assign a numberical value (4.0 or 3.0) to it. Basically GPA calculation should only include courses in which you have received a letter grade (A, B, C etc), or whatever your % grade can be converted to. So courses you take as pass/no-pass, or credit/no-credit usually don't count toward the calculation.

thanks very much.


the only thing is in my grad level, i still got such a course as PE. and there are major-courses and none-major courses.  i think it is unfair to those courses with same credits as my major courses.  it makes my GPA a little lower. anyway, if i round it into the nearest tenth, it will be the same.


anothor question,  i have had my transcript sealed with the departmental stamp. does it matters if i put such a paperwork outside my official transcript pack?



thanks a lot

Hi Bryony-

Does PE = physical ed? If so, I'm guessing it's not grad level (even though you took it as a grad student) and probably doesn't carry same number of credits as classes you took in your major. But it's a guess and to avoid future complications from B-school, you might want to get some kind of documentations from your registrar. I honestly don't see why B-school would care how well you did in PE class Isn't just for recreation purposes only?

I'm a bit confused with your second question. How many transcript pack(s) will you have? Anyway, from my experiences with applying to colleges and grad schools in the US, some schools make a huge fuss that the official transcripts must come from the registrar directly. Others don't care as along as it's sealed with the registrar stamp. At most US schools, when the registrar sends an official transcript to a student (so he/she can include it w/ the rest of the application), the transcript will be stamped with something like: official transcript/released to student. I don't know if it had made any differeneces to the schools I applied to. Since you're applying as an international student, I'd say it's better to check with the B-schools for their exact policy to avoid future complications. Like I said before, it's better to sort out the questions now rather than later. B-schools are under no obligations to tell you that for whatever reason your transcript is not accepted. You'd surprised how slow things work in the admission offices

Good luck!

thanks very much. you are so warm-hearted. maybe i didn't express my second question very clearly.  I mean i had my transcript in a separated envelope sealed with departmental stamp.  if B school require the ducumentation inside the sealed envelope, that will be quite troublesome for me.

i think your suggestion is right. maybe i should contact the B-school.
