FAMU and GPA Requirements?

I've got my eyes set on Florida A&M University. To anyone who's even remotely aware, what's the typical GPA requirement there?

2 months ago

Florida A&M University (FAMU) is slightly competitive to get into, with some solid academic qualifications expected from its applicants. While FAMU does not provide a strict GPA 'cut-off', taking a look at the student profiles they generally admit can give you a good benchmark.

Based on recent admissions data, the average GPA of admitted students tends to hover around 3.7 on a 4.0 scale. That being said, don't see this as a hard and fast rule. Other factors like your SAT/ACT scores, your high school curriculum rigor, your extracurricular engagement, and your essays may also play a significant role in your overall chances.

Remember that lower GPA can often be negated by strengths in other areas of your application. However, if you are aiming for assured admission, you should aim to have a GPA above the average of admitted students.

Please consult the official university website or reach out to the admissions office for the most accurate, up-to-date information. Good luck with your college journey!
