"I feel that my GPA could have been higher; however, I was also a varsity athlete and served as team captain my senior year. I think this really did help me learn a lot about discipline and commitment."
Your GPA shouldn't define you -- and it doesn't -- but this topic can be unavoidable in interviews for entry-level jobs, especially with larger companies who may be sifting through hundreds of applicants for the same position. It's up to you as the candidate to show the interviewer that you are more than your GPA. Even if you graduated with a 4.0, try and highlight other experiences on campus that show you did more than just study for four years.
"I graduated top of my class and am very proud of my accomplishments during University. The experience taught me to study hard and set goals for myself."
