<p>hello everyone,</p>

<p>I'm going to study phd in USA soon in civil engineering.</p>

<p>nowdays, I'm preparing my documents to apply.</p>

<p>there is something I'm afried of, that is my GPA in Undergraduate.</p>

<p>i got 2.10 out 4 in 2007. </p>

<p>but two years later I did master in uk and I got it with distiction.</p>

<p>my GPA was 3.67 out 4 .. ( all courses grades were between A or A-)</p>

<p>so i'm wondering does my undergraduate GPA will play a vital role in getting phd offer in USA ?</p>

<p>I wish that I will be able to get offer from a good ranking university.</p>

<p>does anybody have any Idea?</p>

<p>thanks
Hani</p>

<p>Your undergraduate GPA will be considered, but it will not matter as much as your master’s degree as long as your master’s is related to what you want to study.</p>
