Does SGU and the other carribean schools recalculate GPA like AMCAS? I have some summer courses that are not included in cGPA/sGPA listed on my transcript and was wondering if those would be included in my GPA when applying.

Also, does SGU have rolling admissions or do they accept people semesterly? I guess I was kind of confused on their deadline. They say that their deadline is June 15th for the August class. Im guessing that means to start for August 2010 their deadline is June 15?

Nope. You can apply for August 2009 all the way up until June 15th. This is a cool part about the caribbean schools. I don't see why US schools take sometimes up to 9 months to let someone know if they have been accepted into their program.

I just sent in my application to SGU. And actually, my whole application isn't done yet because my LOR's are in the mail (we just shipped them out yesterday with a first class stamp, so hopefully they will reach SGU by Tuesday or something)

Oh ok! So if someone was to apply in june 15th, 2009 they could still start in August of 2009?

yah that is correct, if you apply by june 2009 you can still be admitted for the august 2009 class!

i think the aug class is full. they've taken 400 or so students excluding the GSPers. i've heard they're preparing the wait list as of now. you might want to try jan 10, just to be sure....
