If a graduate school only requires a 2.3 gpa to get in, is it a bad school?
-
I'm looking at graduate schools and I'm really interested in one. But my dad says that b/c they only require such a low gpa, it's not that great of a school.

Answer:
Yes, I would be worried about that. Most graduate programs do not specify a required GPA or GRE score. The admissions process should be holistic, with several sources of information taken into account. For example, sometimes a student may have one bad semester for a number of reasons. If later work is good, the school may accept a lower GPA. But 2.3 is REALLY low to be going to graduate school.

it might not be :/
there are plenty of good schools that have lower requirements, and this doesnt mean that the school is bad, im sure u can still get a great education there especially if this is a school you like, its probably just that u wont get any name recognition for having attended the school, and a lotta people care about having that recognition.
