Roosevelt: Path to Graduation Freshman 101 Roosevelt: Path to Graduation What happens freshman year DOES NOT stay in freshman year. All 4 years are important in terms of choices and grades. You must pass a course to earn credit towards graduation. Year 1 is an important year for Grade Point Averages. Each semester you earn a new GPA and each semester your current GPA is added to your past GPA to create a cumulative GPA. Start off on the right foot. Each year the number of credits you earn grows, and each year it becomes more difficult to improve a low GPA. Get INVOLVED! Extra and CoCurricular Activities. Build Your RESUME!!!
