GPA for BYU admission

Hey guys, I'm really interested in applying to BYU, but I'm not too sure about their GPA requirements. Does anyone know what GPA range they typically accept? A little insight would be super helpful! Thanks in advance.

Hey there! While BYU doesn't have an explicit minimum GPA, it's helpful to look at the range of GPAs from previously admitted students to give you an idea of what might be competitive. For BYU, the middle 50% of admitted students typically have a high school GPA ranging from 3.8 to 4.0, which means that 25% of admitted applicants have a GPA above 4.0 and 25% have a GPA below 3.8. Keep in mind that a competitive GPA is important, but it's not the only factor in the admissions process. BYU, like many colleges, also takes into consideration standardized test scores, extracurricular activities, essays, and letters of recommendation.

To increase your chances of getting accepted, strive for a strong GPA while also focusing on your extracurricular involvement and developing a compelling personal essay. Remember, there's no magic GPA that guarantees acceptance, but aiming for a GPA within or above the aforementioned range can give you a solid foundation for your application.

I hope this helps! Good luck with your application to BYU!
