Hey y'all, I'm looking into Calvin University and I was wondering what the average GPA is for incoming students. Can anyone shed some light on this topic? Thanks!
Hey! Fortunately, Calvin University provides information about the academic profile of their accepted students. The average high school GPA for admitted students is approximately 3.8 on a 4.0 scale. That being said, Calvin University reviews applications holistically, meaning they look at factors beyond just GPA, such as your extracurriculars, essays, and recommendation letters.
Of course, the higher your GPA, the better your chances of getting accepted. However, if your GPA is lower than the average, but you have strong extracurriculars or outstanding achievements in other areas, you can still have a shot at getting accepted. As always, put your best foot forward in your college application, highlighting your strengths and accomplishments, and make sure to submit a well-rounded application.
Good luck with your application process!
