I'm looking into applying to Kennesaw State University and was curious about their GPA requirements. What GPA should I aim for to have a good shot at getting in? Any input on this would be greatly appreciated!
While Kennesaw State University (KSU) doesn't have a strict minimum GPA requirement, it's helpful to know the average GPA of admitted students to gauge where you stand. The average high school GPA of students accepted at KSU is around 3.5 on a 4.0 scale.
If you can maintain a GPA of around 3.5, you should have a strong chance of being admitted to KSU, as the school's acceptance rate of about 70% indicates that it is relatively accessible. However, it's important to remember that admissions are based on multiple factors, and a higher GPA doesn't guarantee acceptance, just as a lower GPA doesn't mean automatic rejection.
Keep working to maintain or improve your GPA while also ensuring your strengths come across in the other areas of your application, such as your extracurricular involvements. Good luck with your application to Kennesaw State University!
