How to read UGA's number
Colleges read a GPA next to the courses behind it. A slightly lower GPA earned in the hardest schedule your school offers usually reads better than a higher one without it.
Because this figure is on a weighted scale, compare it with your GPA on the same scale. Calculate your weighted GPA.

Frequently asked questions
What GPA do you need for UGA?
UGA reports an average high school GPA of 4.15 on a weighted scale. It is not a cutoff: many students in the class came in below the average. Cohort: Fall 2024 enrolled first-year students (CDS 2024-2025).
Is UGA's GPA weighted or unweighted?
Weighted. The 4.15 includes extra points for honors, AP, or IB courses, so it cannot be compared directly with an unweighted 4.0-scale GPA.
