Hey there! I'm really interested in applying to Elon University, but I'm unsure if my GPA is competitive enough. Anyone know the average GPA for admitted students?
Hey! The average GPA for Elon University admitted students is around 4.1 weighted, although this number may vary slightly from year to year. However, don't let that discourage you, as Elon looks at the whole application beyond just GPA. Make sure you have a strong application in other aspects, such as extracurricular involvement and essays. If your GPA is slightly lower than the average, showcasing your strengths and achievements in other areas of your application can help increase your chances of admission.
