That may be the case but I've had the opposite happen. And besides, were the employers concerned over GPA or just that she could provide proof of graduation or demonstration of certain courses completed? The OP is specifically concerned over GPA. Most employers don't care about GPA but a grad school definitely will. Point is, one credit graded at TESU probably isn't going to make a difference. A 4.0 based on 1 credit isn't worth much. I would never pass myself off as having a 4.0 with only my capstone grade.
