Well the problem that I have is mostly that my college gpa is being compared to the freshmans high school gpa. I would think that they would be weighted differently because college is obviously more difficult than high school. I had a high gpa in high school too. So all these girls that come in with high gpas might not maintain them in college. I think comparing a freshman who had a gpa of 2.79 in high school compared to my college 2.79 isnt fair. When i transferred schools my gpa was weighted differently because it was college credit and not high school credit. How can a sorority honestly believe that a girl who can only manage a 2.79 in high school will amount to a higher gpa in much harder class and school? It just doesnt seem fair to me. Sorry for ranting.

Someone correct me if I am wrong, but I would think that most chapters have a separate GPA requirement for college and HS.

Example: A chapter at my school required a 3.0 HS (for freshmen with no college GPA) and a 2.80 for college students.

Most chapters list both, but they are not always different.

Most Chapters I know of, both within my own GLO and others, have separate Freshmen HS & Upperclassmen college GPA minimums.
