That's how they look at it. Doesn't matter about HS vs college for for freshmen. College GPA only comes in to play for upperclass PNMs. They assume that most freshmen will have a fall off fall semester so they want the highest they can get so that 3.9 HS GPA PNM won't fall too far and drag their GPA down. The higher the chapter GPA, the higher your GPA needs to be.

Let's be honest, anything lower than a 3.0 coming out of high school is going to be a grade risk at a Big 10 school.
