    I don't think they'll reclassify. Look at it from their perspective, you didn't get a 2.1 and you not want to be bumped up to a 2.1, if they bump you up where do they draw the line on who gets bumped up and who doesn't?

    I've heard of this happening to a few people (missing a classification by a small amount) and I've never heard of them being bumped up.

    A 2.1 degree should be a GPA of 3.1, the 3.08 is a already a concession to marginal cases. For a GPA not even close to 3.08, there is no obvious basis for reclassification, although of course you can draw people's attention to the fact that your GPA is at the high end of a 2.2.
