GPA Question - Classes taken outside of current school?

Can we include classes we took outside of our current school in gpa? my gpa on my trascript only shows my school credits but my overall gpa including grades from classes i took over summer from another school is .1 higher. Which makes a big difference. Would it be ok to put that overall gpa on resume and write cumulative next to it?

it never ceases to amaze me how much time people spend giving a flying fuck about .1 of GPA... you are so concerned with finding a way to bend the truth and then trying to justify it... you could throw 3.5 on there and i as an interviewer wouldn't give a flying fuck and wouldn't check up on it... maybe HR will, and maybe they won't but bottom line, your time would be better spent networking and learning everything you can about the industry and the job... go send some emails and practice getting shit on for weeks on end while still smiling... both those skills will serve you better than GPA rounding... ridiculous
