I quoted a 4.04 average after watching a local news report. It’s acrually 4.07 acording to the school. To your point on the arithmetic of getting to that average, I think the “middle 50%” stat below explains how they get there. If I read that correctly, it mean a student with a 3.97 is essentially at the 25rh percentile. It also means that the top quartile have GPA’s greater than 4.21.

High School Core Grade Point Average
Middle 50% of All Admitted First-Year Students: 3.97-4.21
Overall Average of All Admitted First-Year Students: 4.07
Average of Admitted Honors Students: 4.12
