NSHSS GPA Requirement: Is there a specific threshold?

Hi guys! I was curious if there's a specific GPA requirement to join the NSHSS. I'm trying to determine if I'm eligible or not. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hello! The National Society of High School Scholars (NSHSS) has a minimum GPA requirement of 3.5 on a 4.0 scale, or the equivalent, to be eligible to join. If your high school uses a different grading system, you can calculate your GPA using an online converter or ask your school counselor for assistance in converting your GPA to a 4.0 scale. Keep in mind that NSHSS also considers factors beyond GPA, such as a strong commitment to community service and academic excellence. Good luck!
