Hello friends! I've heard that University of Michigan is a pretty competitive school. I wanted to know what's the average GPA of students who get accepted there? Trying to gauge where I stand in the applicant pool.
Hello! You're correct that the University of Michigan is a competitive school. The average GPA of admitted students varies slightly by year, but is usually around 3.76 unweighted.
Keep in mind that University of Michigan, like many other colleges, practices holistic admissions, which means that they consider not only GPA but also other factors such as extracurriculars, essays, and letters of recommendation. So, while earning a high GPA is crucial, make sure to not neglect the other elements of your application, as even a perfect 4.0 won't get you into University of Michigan on its own.
Best of luck with your application!
