Howard Presedential GPA Criteria(International)

Can anyone help me out what the gpa criteria for presedential is(ik in the wensite it says 3.75+cgpa but i heard it's old now and rules have changed)
Also I'm from Nepal and my stats currently are
10th grade:3.75
11th grade:3.47
12th grade:3.8

also one major issue with my profile is that in 9th grade i had a 2.9 or something in the lower 3s range in the gpa

so how much will that affect in the chances given that i score very highly on the sat(1560 or above)

High SAT score is what matters most imo. On top of that, if you apply early action, you’ve got great chances!

so if I have a low 11th grade gpa (3.56) high 12th grade(3.82) and a 1550+ SAT, would I qualify for it?

Have you already taken the sat and got the 1560? If so you are likely to get it. But just boasting you can get 1560 or above wont get you to it. SAT's are harder than you expect. It isnt as easy as you think to get 1560. So if you get 1560 or above yeah you aree certain to get it if you apply early.
