Do honors classes affect GPA?

Whether honors classes will affect your GPA or not depends on if the college uses a weighted GPA scale. If a college uses a weighted GPA, this will positively affect your GPA, but an unweighted GPA does not take the levels of your classes into account. In other words, it won’t change your GPA.
