The IFC at the U of Kentucky is reportedly raising the GPA standard for chapters. See the excerpt below for the timelines and standards. Please note that these are organizational minimums; in other words, chapter averages. However, the high school GPA required to rush will be a 2.7.

Excerpt from campus paper:
. . . The change to the minimum organizational GPA will be gradual. By the end of fall 2010, fraternities must reach the all-male average GPA, which is currently a 2.88. By the spring of 2011, fraternities must have a 2.9 GPA. By the fall of 2011, fraternities must have a 2.95. And then by the spring of 2012, all fraternities must have an organizational GPA of a 3.0. In addition to those requirements, a man preparing to join a fraternity must have a high school GPA of a 2.7 before rushing.
“However, for chapters that make continuous improvement, we will give you more time,” Willett [IFC president] said. . . .
