Hello SDN!

I'm still fairly new at this (total noob is more accurate), but I was wondering what your opinions were on waiting to request an official transcript from the uni you're graduating from.

Right now, my GPA is pretty decent as is (3.78), but I'm anticipating all As for my last qtr. If I wait for my Spring qtr grades to add into my final transcript, I could finish with a 3.79 or 3.80, which doesn't seem like that big of a difference. I was wondering if you all would recommend me just requesting my transcript now instead of waiting and possibly risking getting a B in a class (which would lower my GPA a little bit).

That was a really poorly written explanation, but advice is more than welcome!
 
Oops, sorry if I posted this in a wrong thread or something :|?
 
Submit now. A 3.78 and 3.8 will look essentially the same.
 
Thanks for the prompt reply, eggs13 🙂

I just like to double check for confirmation before I do any potentially application delaying stuff (hehe)
