    The high school GPA for Fall 2022 admissions was 4.47, thus students should score a GPA higher than 4.45 to be able to make it for the University of Maryland admissions. The GPA has increased since Fall 2020, that is, the GPA in Fall 2020 for UMD admissions was at 4.36 whereas in Fall 2021 the GPA was reported at 4.39 for admissions.

Thus, its completely up to the students as to how they wish their applications to be evaluated.
