Can a 2.13 grade point average get in university in US or college?

On a 4.0 scale with 4.0 being the highest, a grade point average (GPA) of 2.13 would be a letter grade of C. It is possible to gain admission to some colleges and universities, but it depends on the school and the program the student is applying to. Some programs are more competitive than others. Thus, a GPA of C may be adequate for general admissions, but not for a specific program (major). In addition, chances of being accepted to a competitive institution would not be good. Still, the GPA is only one thing the selection committee takes into consideration. Some issues could include, standardized tests results, rigor of program, essay, letters of recommendation, extra curricular activities to include work experience, and volunteer work, personal abilities, first generation college student, etc.
