Hey everyone, I came across the University of Delaware (UD) and I'm considering applying there. What are the typical GPA requirements for admission to UD? Any insight would be super helpful!
Hello! The University of Delaware (UD) is a great school to consider, and to give you some insight, I can provide you with average GPA information. While there isn't a specific GPA requirement to apply, looking at past admitted students' records can give you an idea of what is typical.
According to the University's data, the middle 50% of admitted students typically have a high school GPA between 3.85-4.32 (on a weighted 4.0 scale). This statistic means that 25% of students admitted had a GPA above 4.32, while another 25% had a GPA below 3.85, and the remaining 50% fell within this range.
Though these figures give you a general sense of where your GPA might fall within the admits' range, it's important to remember that UD uses a holistic approach to evaluate applicants. Factors such as course rigor, test scores (if submitted), extracurricular involvement, and so on will also be considered alongside your GPA.
If your GPA falls in or close to the middle 50% range, you should have a solid chance of admission, provided that the other aspects of your application are also strong. If your GPA is lower than the range, don't give up hope - just focus on showcasing your strengths and passion in other areas of your application.
Good luck with your application to UD!
