Cracking the Code: GPA and the Quest for UWM (University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee)
Hey there, future Panthers! Dreaming of rocking that UWM purple and gold? Awesome choice! But before you stock up on cheese curds and hit the frozen tundra (okay, maybe not that frozen), there's the little hurdle of admissions. And that, my friends, often comes down to that three-letter monster: GPA.
So, what GPA do you need to wrestle your way into UWM?
Now, UWM isn't looking for Einsteins (although, those are welcome too). They're looking for solid students who can handle college-level work. The average GPA for admitted students is around 3.19. That means B-average with some A's sprinkled in is a good ballpark. Think you can handle that? (Spoiler alert: you probably can, superstar!)
Tip: Don’t rush — enjoy the read.
