What country are you from? Are you legal?
I&#039;m sorry, but I just don&#039;t understand how you don&#039;t know your high school grades. Is that what you&#039;re asking about? If your high school grades are good enough to get into college?
Okay, to find out your grades, you need to contact your high school. Ask to speak to your guidance counselor or principal. Tell them that you&#039;re interested in getting your academic statistics, because you&#039;d like to go to college. Ask them for report cards from the past four years of high school, and your GPA. Your GPA is your Grade Point Average (all of your grades in each subject added up). Your GPA is very important, as many colleges disqualify you based on that.
Did you take SAT&#039;s? Those are also important. What about extra cirriculars (clubs)? All of these things are important. You can&#039;t just sign up for college... you have to show that you&#039;re smart enough to handle it.
After you have those grades (your principal or guidance counselor should be able to help), you can start downloading information for college. You can go to the university&#039;s website and download their application, then fill it out with your new academic information.
I&#039;m sorry, but I&#039;m still a little confused. Didn&#039;t you get any report cards? Progress reports? When you graduated, what percent of your class were you in?</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Okay, I&#8217;m a little confused.</p><p>What country are you from?

If you want to go to a high-ranked college or university, you&#039;ll need at least a 3.5 out of 4.0 GPA.  But 3.0 will still get you into some state schools.  Lower than 3.0, you start running into problems, and pretty much no school will consider you if you have less than a 2.5 GPA.  That&#039;s a C+ average.  If you&#039;ve got that or lower, consider spending a couple of years at a community college, raising your GPA, and applying to transfer to a 4-year school.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Calculate your GPA.
