Study abroad courses affect GPA?

[bwc]

When AADSAS calculates your GPA, would study abroad courses be factored in? I know you would have to enter courses taken abroad. At my home institution, courses that get transferred back will only have a "T" mark to indicate that the course was transferred in, but the institution abroad that I am interested in uses the same letter grading system used in the US (A+, A, A-, B+, B, B-, etc.).

AADSAS has a FAQ specifically on the subject which I'm too lazy to find and link to in my phone. It goes through the different possibilities of which grades will be factored in depending on which institution gave you what credit.

In your case---which is exactly the same case as mine this past cycle---AADSAS won't care about the study abroad institution grades. They just care about that "T" your home institution gave you and will not factor your grade in at all.

In fact they'll never see your study abroad grades because they won't even want that transcript---just however it transferred to your home situation through whatever study abroad policies your particular school uses.
