How many credits should have to be on track?

​

What A-G GPA should I have if I want to be eligible to attend a university after HS?

​

What if I have D’s on my transcript? Am I still A-G eligible?

​

Why is the CAL Grant GPA important?

Classes you took

Grades you earned

Credits you earned

Credits earned, by subject area

Total credits earned, to date

Cumulative = total amount, added together

Cal Grant GPA = 10th-12th, academic courses, unweighted

Weighted = 5.0 scale vs. Unweighted = 4.0 scale

Weighted A-G GPA = ONLY A-G courses, 10th -12th

Rigor

The term rigor is used to describe instruction, schoolwork, learning experiences, and educational expectations that are academically, intellectually, and personally challenging.

Why is rigor important to you?

• Your own growth and learning
• College eligibility and entrance requirements
• Apprenticeships
• Jobs

Think about this…Have you taken advantage of the learning and educational opportunities available to you? Are you doing more than the minimum? Are you doing your best?
