Some programs will do their own recalculation of GPAs based on their own formulas using your transcripts, but most schools simply use the CASPA designations to save themselves so work.

What classes count towards science gpa besides the nontraditional? Nutrition? Also, I'm minoring in recreational therapy which is in my undergrad's college of science and health, would these classes also count? I am trying to do anything and everything to raise my sGPA. Thanks!

Boost your GPA by completing a post-bacc program or a Master’s program. Boost your science GPA by enrolling in online or community college courses that are 3-4 credits. Boost your science GPA by retaking courses you may have received a B- or lower in during college.
CASPA calculates several types of GPAs based on every college-level course you have taken, whether before, during, or after your undergraduate years. This includes any courses that you have retaken for grade replacement or grade averaging as allowed by your university.
Most programs have a cGPA requirement of at least 3.0, and others have a minimum requirement of 2.75.
PA programs may calculate cGPA and sGPA differently than CASPA, and may indeed allow for grade replacement or grade averaging. This is more difficult for programs to do than just accepting the CASPA-calculated GPAs, so it is the exception.
