I only see my undergrad GPA on my CASPA application The way I viewed mine was first downloading the PDF file of my CASPA application (any school works just fine) and scrolling to the middle of the document. There should be a green page next to your transcript entry with a breakdown of all your GPA values. Science GPA, overall GPA, senior GPA, non-science GPA, etc. Hope this helps! What class is the one with the 1.5 units? If it’s not a pre-requisite, I would probably just round down to 1. Then submit and hope CASPA accepts it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you type in your transcripts? Or did you pay for the CASPA service? My app has a long list of GPA's. Many different sub-categories. I'd call CASPA to see if you can quickly fix it before you hit any submission deadlines - Jake 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When they verify your app they should catch errors like this for you. I wouldn’t stress too much. I would encourage you to take these types of questions to the general discussion board of this website, CASPA help boards, Facebook pre-PA groups etc. This thread is specifically about UC Davis applicants, so some folks may find it to be an annoyance to keep getting notifications for posts unrelated to Davis.

biopsyd Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 Hi everyone, I'm a 1st year student accepted this past cycle! I'll be popping in occasionally and see how I can help. I saw alot of posts about science GPA. Just a heads up, Davis looks at different GPAs compared to what other schools traditionally use. For science GPA, they do not use the overall science. They use prereq science GPA, which only includes your grades for Human Anatomy, Human Physiology, Chemistry, and Microbiology with labs! (CASPA doesn't calculate this fyi). Similarly, they look at your baccalaureate GPA and do not use the overall GPA. That said, if you repeated courses at your university and did "grade forgiveness," it will count for Davis only! (CASPA doesn't do grade forgiveness for their overall GPA calculations). Hope this helps. Good luck everyone! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please keep us updated on your progress! @TAIsbell , thank you also for giving us all an update. Best of luck too you! You have a very strong application and stats. I admire all the shadowing hours you have. You also have a ton of PCE. How is your cGPA and sGPA? - Jake Thank you @Jake408 I wish you the best of luck too! My cGPA is 3.5 and sGPA is 3.4! My sGPA took into account courses that I retook to improve my grade, so I let each program know of this and to request if they could calculate my GPA excluding the repeated courses. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
