Law schools use the Credential Assembly Service to standardize undergraduate records. Your CAS GPA may differ from the GPA shown by your college.
Why CAS GPA Matters
Law schools compare CAS GPA across applicants, so it becomes the GPA number that matters most in admissions data.
What Can Change It
Repeated courses, transcripts from multiple institutions, and grading policies can affect the CAS calculation.

Official Admissions and Disclosure Sources
