How to access student grades, graduation summary, transcripts and college entrance requirements in AERIES Portal- Screencast Recording
For high school graduation requirements, students earn credit for courses completed with a D grade or higher. To meet college admission requirements, students must earn a C grade or higher. For D or F grades, if a student repeats the same course, the higher grade will replace the lower grade in the SDUHSD GPA* calculation although both courses and grades remain on the transcript. Withdraw/W's are not factored into the GPA calculation.
There are three types of GPA on the SDUHSD transcript:
Total GPA 9-12: Includes every course taken in grades 9-12.
Acad. GPA 9-12: Includes all college prep courses taken in 9-12
Acad. GPA 10-12: Includes all college prep courses taken in 10 -12
College prep courses are courses approved as meeting A-G coursework by UC and CSU schools on CCA's A-G Course List.
AP exam and college entrance exam scores are not posted on the SDUHSD transcript and must be ordered from College Board or ACT.
It is the SDUHSD policy not to rank students.
*Please note each college determines its own GPA calculation formula for admission. For example, the California State University (CSU)/University of California (UC) admission GPA is based on coursework from summer after 9th through summer after 11th grade in all “A-G” approved courses. (Pluses and minuses do not count.) Students may earn an extra point for each semester of a UC weighted course, with a maximum of 8 points between 10th and 11th grades. Check college admission websites for specific information provided directly by the college.
