GPA requirements for Morehouse admission?

Do any Morehouse grads here know the baseline GPA they're looking for in applicants? I want to make sure my GPA's competitive enough. Thanks!

Hey there! Morehouse College does not explicitly state minimum GPA requirements for their applicants, but we can look at the admitted student profile to get a general idea. As of recent Admissions data, the average GPA of admitted Morehouse students is around a 3.5, typically on an unweighted 4.0 scale. However, it's important to remember that GPA is just one factor in the admissions process. Your course rigor, extracurricular activities, recommendations, essays, etc. are all key components.

If your GPA falls below this average range, don’t be overly discouraged. There are strategies to add weight to other elements of your application to mitigate a less-than-ideal GPA, such as developing a compelling personal essay, showing significant involvement in a few extracurricular activities (it's not about quantity, but depth and consistency), or demonstrating leadership.

And also, remember that improving your GPA is always possible, even if it's gradual. Talk to your teachers or school counselor about strategies to boost your academic performance in your current classes. Best of luck!
