Some of the most competitive awards (UK graduate scholarships, 例如)可以指定GPA至少为3.7. 其他竞争奖项, 喜欢富布赖特, 可以不指定最低绩点, but they will look closely at your transcript for your academic success in the courses most relevant for, 说, the graduate course or research you plan to pursue while on your fellowship.

Your job as a candidate is to understand what your program means by academic excellence, and then make your best case for how you’ve demonstrated relevant strengths and achievements.

All programs focus their pursuit of excellence based on what matters most to them: for example, exercise of leadership or pursuit of public service or creation of new knowledge. 候选人需要有相关的准备和成绩. 有时候学习成绩优秀是最重要的.
