Hi all, I'm really interested in applying to George Washington University. I was wondering if anyone knows what the average GPA is for incoming freshmen? Just trying to see if I'm a competitive applicant. Thanks!
Hi there! George Washington University is a great choice, and it's understandable that you want to gauge your competitiveness in terms of GPA. For GW's Class of 2027, the average GPA was around 3.76 (on a 4.0 scale). While this can give you a good idea of where the majority of admitted students stood, it's essential to remember that admissions are typically holistic, and GW will consider other aspects of your application as well.
That being said, if your GPA falls within or above this range, it would make you a more competitive candidate. However, if it's slightly below, don't be discouraged. Focus on showcasing your strengths in other areas such as extracurricular activities, essays, and teacher recommendations. Good luck with your application!
