<p>My brother is going into his 4th year at a CC and I wanted to try and help answer some of his questions. The first 2 years he went to play a sport and didn't care about his grades. This past year he transferred to a different CC, didn't play a sport, and brought up his GPA slightly. He has little hope that he can actually transfer to a University since he has been at a CC for so many years and still doesn't have the best GPA. My question is what would be the lowest GPA a school, for example we were looking into Temple University, would accept and would he be less likely to get in since he has been at a CC for longer than 3 years? </p>
<p><a href=“Transfer Students | Temple University Office of Undergraduate Admissions”>http://admissions.temple.edu/apply/transfer-applicant</a> says that Temple’s average admitted transfer student college GPA is 3.10, although some majors/divisions are higher. It does not say what the minimum college GPA to transfer is (obviously, some transfer students have GPAs lower than the minimum).</p>
<p>Some schools do admit transfer students with college GPAs as low as 2.0.</p>
<p>Many CC students attend for more than 2 years before they are transfer-ready, due to having to attend part-time for work or family obligations.</p>
