Scholarships for a 2.5 GPA

With a 2.5 GPA you meet the published GPA rule for these 12 open scholarships: each one either states a minimum of 2.5 or lower, or says there is no minimum. Most scholarships on this site don’t publish a GPA cut-off at all, so they aren’t listed here, but you can still apply to them.

Updated

GPA rules come from each sponsor’s official eligibility, as of the “last verified” date on each listing. Weighted vs. unweighted rules differ, so check the official page.
