Is my GPA of 6.5 out of 10 high enough to be eligible for colleges abroad in UK for a Master's?
17 Jun 2026 · Answered by Prakhar Pragy Dixit · 1 min read
It depends. A GPA of 6.5 out of 10 is on the lower side for many master's programs in the UK, where a minimum of 60% (2:1) is commonly required. However, some universities may accept a GPA as low as 50% (2:2) for certain courses.
Your eligibility will also depend on the specific university and program. Strengthening your application with solid work experience, a strong statement of purpose, and good recommendation letters can help.
For tailored guidance on suitable universities, please connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
