Minimum GPA for San Diego State and UT?

Hey guys, I'm wondering what the minimum GPA requirements are for admission to San Diego State and the University of Texas. Can anyone share any info or experiences with these schools?

While both San Diego State University (SDSU) and the University of Texas at Austin (UT) have recommended GPA thresholds for their applicants, there is no official "minimum GPA" for either university. Both universities employ a holistic review process, which means they consider more than just GPA when evaluating applicants. Other elements, such as standardized test scores (for UT), extracurricular activities, essays, and leadership experiences, can also influence a candidate's admission prospects.

However, to provide you with a general understanding of the GPA ranges for accepted students, here are some statistics. At SDSU, the average high school GPA of admitted students tends to fall between 3.69 and 4.25 (weighted). Meanwhile, at UT Austin, the average high school GPA of admitted students is around 4.18 (weighted).

Please remember that these GPA ranges represent the average accepted student profile and do not guarantee admission. Students with lower GPAs can still be admitted, and similarly, students with higher GPAs might not be admitted if their application is weaker in other areas.

It is essential to focus on crafting a well-rounded application that displays your academic achievements, involvement in extracurricular activities, strong essays, and, if applicable, good standardized test scores.
