they will see 2.99 because that is what it is, they will also see the transcripts, and if you put 3.0 on the application and it doesn't match the transcripts they can reject the application and send it back to the NRD for corrections, had that happen once.
I'm afraid it won't matter, not in this competitive environment... but give it a try, miracles happen.

no it does not, they look at the individual class grades.
Are you telling me that the all-nighters I put into aceing "Obsolete Vercingetorix French" were wasted? Would have been nice to know...in 1970. FML...

And I was being facetious.
Come on, nuke...nuking it?
yeah, today may not be the day for me to make too many post, I did a favor for someone and rec'd a "you screwed me over email", it pisses me off when you do a person a favor and they are ungrateful.
I had a 2.4something. Was smart enough to figure out stick go forward, trees get bigger. Stick go back, trees get smaller.
Yeah but keep in mind, certain programs have minima. In BDCP, if i got a single semester under 2.7, I'd have been on probation, or contract cancelled and gone enlisted. Buyer beware.
One time in BDCP, I forgot to turn in my transcript for a semester and handed it in super late. The NRD went full code red on me, nevermind the fact I had straight A's that term

We had a BDCP get less than 2.7 one term, NRC was generating paperwork to send them enlisted when the NRD called and begged them to give them a chance to fix the issue.
It is essentially "one strike your out" situation now.
minimum for aviation is now 2.5

The GPA thing is a question that I also have when I go to apply for OCS. From what I understand, GPA is not the only thing that is looked at on the application package and the ATSB score is the most important, along with extracurricular activities, LOR's etc.
If I am wrong with any of that information, feel free to correct me. I am by no means an expert and am only in the beginning stages of my future naval career.

"Whole Person Concept". You have a 2.99 in Chem E. That's pretty damn good in my book. Actually I had a 2.98 in Elec Eng. I'm pretty sure the selection board will look at your app and be fully aware of the fact that a 2.99 in Chemical Engineering > a 3.5 in Poly Sci.
2.5 with 7 F's on my transcript... And I am doing alright for myself.
Gotta ace the ASTB though and have really good LOR's and motivational statement when you decide to screw away your academics like I did...not saying you did.
I had a lot of athletics and other extracurriculars. I worked two jobs while going to school etc...they look at all of that.
