UC Berkeley, like most universities, doesn't explicitly state a specific GPA requirement for admissions, but data from admitted students can provide an estimate of what they're generally looking for. For instance, according to the data from Berkeley's Office of Planning and Analysis, the average unweighted GPA of students admitted for Fall 2023 was about 3.93. On a weighted scale, it was approximately 4.44.

Keep in mind, a high GPA is just part of the equation. Berkeley takes a comprehensive, holistic approach to admissions, meaning they consider a variety of factors, not just your academics but also your extracurricular involvement, leadership roles, community service, personal insight answers, and other factors that could demonstrate your potential to thrive at Berkeley.
