Do college grades really matter?
I mean if you graduate with a 2.0 or a 4.0 you still get the same diploma and graduate correct. So do grades really matter? Or is it just about the degree and the diploma? Thank you.

If you're applying to law or medical school or graduate school, your grades matter quite a bit - to have any shot at all, you need to have above a 3.0 GPA, and to have a decent shot, above a 3.5 GPA.
If you're not going on to more school but trying to get a job in your field (engineering, architecture, accounting, etc) employers WILL ask and judge you on your GPA.
If you're going to graduate and go work a job that doesn't require a college degree, or just a generic degree but no particular subject (like store manager at the mall), then no, your GPA doesn't matter.
It depends on what you are going to do with your degree.
If you are applying to grad school-they matter.
Also, for most majors you have to keep at least a 2.5, some higher.
For scholarships usually its a 3.0
But for jobs, when you are done....usually doesn't matter as much-its all about your portfolio and experience
Yes. Employers ask for it and look at that when you apply for a job.
