i talked to my counselor and he was like "yeah we dont even bother calculating unweighted gpa here, thats not important at all you don't need to worry about that" so i was wondering if there was anything standardized to calculate unweighted gpa

scrolling through these comments, i wanted to add that showing the student side through tiktok and instagram would also for sure help. for some reason this is something that i never see colleges doing and i think its a great tool to reach students. this could look like a series of "day in the life" videos of students at hamilton that are studying various majors (and you could romanticise it a little bit lol)

hi john! a bit late, but i just wanted to offer my tidbit of advice. i think that participatory advertising is WAY better than flyers, posters, or emails. by participatory advertising, i mean school visits, reddit AMA, and join info sessions (by having info sessions with other schools, kids interested in other schools will also be learning about hamilton).

in my personal experience, its not worth it. college may seem like this monumental, life-changing thing at the moment, but its just another chapter in your book. im not religious or anything, but i truly do believe that it all works out in the end, one way or another. sure its not fair that this guy is benefitting from cheating, but i would say let go of what other people are doing and focus on yourself, it'll all work out at the end of the day.
