Schools you can apply to with 1 year

To be more complete:

 

Are summer courses acceptable and included in the requirements for credits?

 

Courses taken during the summer or while a part time student will be included in the calculation of the cumulative GPA. These courses will not be included in the calculation of the GPA based on the most recent to two full time years, if this calculation is necessary.

Hah so if you got like 3.9, 3.9 for two years, you'd almost be better to bomb the next two years to drop your overall below the cutoff, rather than trying legitimately for another two years and getting 3.7, 3.7 and having your overall GPA lower than it would have been.

 

But then you'd eff yourself over for the schools that don't weigh your top 2 years.

 

:cool: :cool:

 

They say something like, if you don't hit the cumulative GPA cutoff they see if your most recent 2 years hit the cutoff (the cutoffs are different, cumulative GPA cutoff is lower). From what I understand, it effectively that they will use either your cumulative GPA or most recent 2 years, whichever works better for you.
