What GPA do you need to get into Florida International University?
Florida International University’s own Common Data Set (2025-26, item C12) gives the average high school GPA of its enrolled first-year students as 4 (99% of them submitted one), a whole number with no decimals. That is too coarse to compare with your own GPA, and the CDS does not say whether it is weighted. Source: Florida International University Common Data Set 2025-26, item C12.
