What does a 2.0 gpa on a scale of 4.0 mean?

I’m Transferring colleges and it says for a transfer students gpa needs to be “ minimum gpa for transfer admissions considerations is a 2.0 on a 4.0 scale”. What does that mean? I have a 2.5 gpa at the school I am at now.

It means that you need a C (2.0) average. A 2.5>2.0 so you have met the benchmark.
