a good one It depends upon what school you are trying to get into. There are many schools that will accept any GPA, and many that are highly competitive that do require a high GPA.
In the US, a minimum cumulative undergraduate GPA of 3.75 would be considered competitive. A competitive science GPA would be 3.8 and a competitive last 45 or 60 credit hour GPA would be 3.8. To achieve these GPAs, you need mostly A's, a few B's and very few C's - no D's or F's.
If a Medical Student wants to be competitive for top residency programs, they usually require a 4.0 overall GPA. Residency Programs look at this the most. With a 4.0 overall GPA, you will be able to get into any residence program you desire.
3.71 is the average high school GPA i believe. but it's gotten to be a fairly competitive school, and you're gonna need a lot more than just a decent GPA.
The GPA most likely is fine, but Uconn is becoming a more competitive university and the 1600 out of 2400 may not be enough when compared to kids applying with higher scores.
The look for 3.5 or above but GPA is not the only thing they consider (i.e. school involvement, SAT's and the like). It is a very competitive, prestigious private university with an extremely rigorous academic curriculum. All the best! Don't give up
To be a competitive student, you need to have at least 3.00( although the requirement needs 2.5). You may be more competitive also if you have a strong grade in math, social science, or science. It depends on which major you are applying to. ^_^
In the United States, in vet school you generally have to maintain at least a 2.0, although most students are between a 3.0 and 3.5. In undergraduate college, to be competitive when applying to vet school, you need to maintain a much higher GPA, at least 3.75.
Dental schools are very competitive. Thus, with a GPA of 2.3 it would be very difficult if at all possible. Still, if this field is a passion of yours, then you can start working on bringing that GPA up. You should meet with an academic counselor to develop a plan of action.
Most colleges have a GPA cutoff, so it really depends on what your GPA is. Some schools will put students on academic probation if their GPA is 2.0 or lower. If you think you GPA is too low to make the cutoff for the university you wish to attend, you could stay another sememester or two and work towards improving your GPA before trying to transfer. It really depends on where you're trying to transfer to. If your GPA is less than 2.5, I would stay at the community college and try to bring it up. If it's better, I would try to get into some less competitive 4-year schools. If it's 3.5 or better, you could get more ambitious and apply to some competitive schools (transfer standards are usually lower than freshman admission standards). Either way, besides the application fee, you've got nothing to lose.
Whether a GPA is good or bad often depends on how competitive your high school is and the GPAs held by other students in your class. Often a GPA of 2.7 is considered average, but you should check with your guidance counselor and ask how your grades compare to others. Often schools will calculate your class rank-- how your GPA compared to everyone else in your graduating class.
