What should my GPA be to realistically get into UGA?

Okay, so I'm looking at UGA as one of my top choices, but I'm just not sure if my GPA is up to par. Can anyone who attends UGA, or is familiar with its admissions, give me a heads up on what they're looking for GPA-wise?

While UGA doesn't have a minimum GPA requirement, a competitive applicant often has a GPA that falls in the A-range. For example, the most recent class profile for UGA had an average high school GPA of around 4.0 on a weighted scale. Because UGA weights your GPA, taking challenging courses can help your candidacy. Demonstrating improvement over time can also help show your commitment to your studies, and speak well of your overall readiness for college-level work, as your performance junior and senior year is more indicative of the kind of student who would be arriving on UGA's campus.
