I am still in pursuit of obtaining my BA. I have been attending UNM for 4 semesters and currently have a cumulative GPA of a 3.59. This should be increased at the end of the spring 2020 semester as I have a 100% in once class and a low A in my other course. Which should result in me obtaining a 4.0 this semester.
