Hi everyone, I'm interested in applying to UW Milwaukee, but I'm not sure what their GPA requirements are. Does anyone know the minimum or average GPA needed for acceptance?
UW Milwaukee, like many universities, does not have a strict minimum GPA requirement for applicants. However, it's helpful to consider the average GPA of admitted students to get a sense of what the school is looking for academically. For UW Milwaukee, the average high school GPA of accepted students is around a 3.2.
Keep in mind that college admissions officers also consider other factors such as standardized test scores (if submitted), extracurricular activities, course rigor, and so on. So while having a GPA close to or above the average can improve your chances, it's important to focus on the overall strength of your application as well.
Also, don't forget to check the requirements for specific programs within the university, as some majors or colleges may ask for additional admissions materials, or may look for higher or lower GPAs in applicants. Good luck!
