Your GPA is recalculated based on the academic core courses (including English, math, science, social studies and foreign language). UCF uses a 4.0 grading scale, and also awards additional quality points for any weighted courses within the academic core. Courses marked as pre-AP, pre-IB, pre-AICE and honors are given an additional 0.5 quality point. Advanced Placement (AP), International Baccalaureate (IB), Advanced International Certification of Education (AICE) and Dual Enrollment (DE) courses are given 1 additional quality point.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"tags":[25,56],"class_list":["post-5641","faq","type-faq","status-publish","hentry","tag-freshman","tag-open-house","topic-freshman"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nFAQ:How is my high school GPA calculated for admission?<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Your GPA is recalculated based on the academic core courses (including English, math, science, social studies and foreign language).
