[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My best friend’s hooked daughter got into University of Chicago off the waitlist. She struggled the entire way through and graduated with right at a two point. The college kept telling her her gpa didn’t matter “at Chicago” so she wouldn’t transfer out. She got no job offers. After working for the university for a few months she’s back home and tutors little kids for peanuts through some federal non-profit program. So maybe she won’t fail out but she could be in a difficult spot in recruiting with an awful gpa.[/quote] She needs to broaden her application pool. Most smaller companies don’t care about GPA or even ask. [/quote] Agreed. For grad school, yes, she’s hosed. But I’ve hired lots of people and never once had access to GPA. Wouldn’t even know how. Way, way more to this story than what’s been shared. [/quote]
