Most schools do not have an official minimum (some may admit applicants from Ivy League schools with 2.1 GPAs) but it is generally recommended to reconsider applying to law school if your GPA is less than a 3.0, although the median GPA for average-to-good school is around a 3.5/3.6 and higher for top law schools.
Check with the specific schools you are interested in and see if they have an official minimum. They probably will not.

∙ 13y agoWhen doing law school admissions, it's not just the GPA they will be looking at. You would be better off with at least a 3.0+ GPA, however approximately 70% of the admissions process is going to be determined by your LSAT score (Law School Admission Test), and that score should be as high as possible.

∙ 15y agoThere is no minimum GPA for lawschools, there is always a school out there that will take you. However, to get into a top school you will need at least a 3.5, but preferably around a 3.7......... the school is not to important to law schools, but the LSAT is. If you have a 3.5 or better and a excellent LSAT score,(160+) you will be admitted to an elite school.
