    The University of Tokyo does not officially state a minimum GPA requirement, however, as per an unofficial source, students with an equivalent minimum GPA of 3.7 or higher are known to have secured a seat at the institute.

    The UTokyo acceptance rate of 34-36%, warrants students to demonstrate their academic ability & thus only a good GPA would do for interested applicants.
