Hey, I've been researching Eastern Washington University for a while now, and I can't seem to find info on their GPA requirements. Does anyone know what GPA they typically look for in applicants, or if there's a minimum requirement to apply?
Eastern Washington University (EWU) follows a holistic admissions process, which means they take into consideration various aspects of a student's application, not just their GPA. However, GPA is still an important factor in their decision-making process.
While EWU does not publish a strict minimum GPA requirement, you can get an idea of the GPA range of accepted students by looking at their admissions statistics. According to recent data, the average high school GPA of admitted students at EWU is around 3.25. If you have a GPA close to or above this average, you should be considered a competitive candidate.
That being said, students with a lower GPA may still have a chance at being admitted if they demonstrate strengths in other areas of their application, such as strong extracurricular activities. It's important to focus on creating a well-rounded application that highlights your unique skills, experiences, and interests to improve your chances of admission to EWU.
Finally, if you have a GPA above 3.0, and are on track to complete EWU's College Academic Distribution Requirements (CADRs), you could be eligible for EWU's Guaranteed Admissions Program (GAP), if your high school has an agreement to be part of the program. Consider reaching out to your guidance counselor for more information about this program, to see if you might qualify.
