This is for all of you who have completed a Postbac, taken additional courses or have done a remedial program after graduation. Does/did your Postbac GPA have any effect on your undergrad GPA on AADSAS or is it in its own separate category??? Any input whatsoever is great appreciated.

It will be in its own GPA if its a masters program or any graduate program. Then that will be combined with undergrad for a "total cumulative GPA". If its Post-Bac but still undergrad classes, I suppose it will increase undergrad GPA.

post-bacc GPA applies toward undergrad GPA.

Yes. As long as you do well in them it will boost up your undergrad GPA.

Either way, the answer to the title of this thread is yes. (If like jigabodo said, as long as you do well)

Wow... I never though of someone going back to do a post-bac and actually lowering his/her GPA. Ouch!

when calculating the "total cumulative GPA," is it weighted? as in, undergrad = grad (50/50), or weighted based on credit hours taken (e.g. undergrad is 150 cred, grad = 50, so undergrad has more influence).

As you said, it is "weighted based on credit hours taken (e.g. undergrad is 150 cred, grad = 50, so undergrad has more influence)."

That was the tough part for me since I double majored in undergrad, and had a lot of credits holding my GPA down.
