RAI Calculator
Grade-point average:
Enter your high school grade-point average and scale. If your school provides more than one GPA (e.g. weighted GPA and non-weighted GPA), use the best GPA.
Number of completed core courses:
Enter the number of full-year courses that you've taken or plan to take in English, mathematics, natural science, social science, computer science and world languages. (A one-semester course counts as 0.5.) While additional courses in areas such as fine arts and technology will help round out your high school experience and prepare you for future careers, they are not part of the core courses used to calculate your admission index.
Working with your high school guidance counselor, consult the following document to determine what courses count in the Regent Admission Index calculation:
