I'm so nervous about my application to FSU... Could anyone tell me what's the average GPA of students who get accepted there? This information could really help me in making decisions about my college applications.
Most reports suggest that the average high school GPA of incoming freshmen at Florida State University (FSU) is around 4.26 on a weighted scale. However, the range is broad, with many applicants accepted with GPA's below and above that average as well.
Keep in mind that FSU, like many universities, uses a weighted GPA scale where extra weight is given to honors, AP, and IB classes. So, taking advanced coursework can really help boost your GPA from the perspective of college admissions.
Despite this, keep in mind that GPA isn't everything in college admissions. While your grades are a big part of your application, FSU also looks at the rigor of your high school coursework, your leadership and involvement in extracurricular activities, and your application essays. And remember that these are just averages. Students are accepted into FSU with lower and higher GPAs every year.
