If this person has already obtained their degree I honestly would not have much of an issue with their GPA. Whether we realize it or not, everyone did not graduate with a steller GPA. We do stress Scholarship as one of our principles, but a person that has obtained a Bachelor's Degree(whether they graduated with a 2.3 or a 4.0)has completed a course of study. Therefore, that in my opinion shows that they at least have the perseverance to see something through. On top of that, you never know why a person may not have had great grades in college(change of majors, full-time employment, personal issues, etc.) Now, if this person was still in undergrad and they approached us with a 2.3 I would encourage them to get their grades up.

On a sidenote, out of all the college graduates that I know far more of them were closer to 2.5 than to 3.5. There are far more "average" people out there making moves than people realize.
