Hi! I finished my first semester of college at American University (16 credits) with a 3.51. I know in future semesters I can do far better, as towards the beginning I struggled a lot figuring out my study routine and what exactly college required. That aside, I’m looking to apply to internships potentially next semester, and I’m not sure if that GPA would be particularly off-putting, or if it’s decent enough not to raise any alarm. Basically, I’m not entirely sure what a good college GPA looks like. Are 4.0s common? Thoughts?
