citrinez Posted April 4, 2007 Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 Does having a masters eliminate the use of undergrad gpa in the gpa calculation? I.e. Is only the masters gpa included? Is there preference given for whether the masters is 1 or 2 years, and if it is course or thesis-based? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haiku_guy Posted April 4, 2007 Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 Nope. All marks are considered. For grad students applying at U of T, it is especially important to have research productivity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'm not even sure your grad GPA counts since it is often with very little courses (depending on if it is a course-based or research-based degree, e.g. at the time of application, I had one course on my transcript). I think there is a preference for a 2-yr thesis-based masters, but only if because you obtain more research experience and it is very difficult to get a study done in 1 year. That is not to say those with a 1-yr course-based masters do not get in, because they definitely do as well. This is all my opinion so take what you may.
