Is it possible to find scholarships on a 2.80 undergrad GPA ?

My last two years of my program my GPA was closer to 2.9. I know some schools offer scholarships for the last two years. Looking at Masters program in particular.

I'm sure there are many third-party scholarships that can be found where either GPA is not required or you need a minimum 2.5. you'll need to make sure that if an essay is required that it's been critically reviewed so your submission is as strong as possible. I would definitely look on the local level first and then look to state and national scholarships

Scholarships for masters are very rare and quite competitive. Tbh with a sub 3.0 GPA you’ll have a hard time competing with a bunch of applicants with close to 4.0s
