Hi All,
I've been waitlisted at at a top-20 program and am in the process of writing my waitlist update. In reviewing my application, I have realized that the grades earned for my summer and study abroad courses are not on my transcript, only the course name and confirmation that credit was earned (aka the course was passed). The grades for these 5 classes lower my cumulative GPA 0.02 points and don't impact my major GPA; one of the courses is a retake of a calculus course. Is it necessary for me to update the admissions committee? I'm leaning towards yes but curious to hear other thoughts as well.![]()
