Hi everyone. I'm thinking about George Mason University. Could someone tell me the GPA they usually expect from applicants? Grateful for your input!
Hey there! Typically, George Mason University likes to see applicants who have a high school GPA that averages around 3.68. That said, it's important to note this isn't a hard and fast rule and there is a range of GPAs for admitted students. As you aim for that GPA target, do keep in mind that your GPA is just one part of your entire application. Other elements like your essays, extracurriculars, and recommendation letters also matter, and can help in building a strong application profile.
Don't let your GPA completely dictate your college list. Remember, it isn't the only thing admissions officers review. They want to see that you're a well-rounded applicant who can bring a unique perspective to their campus.
That said, if your GPA could use a little boost, your senior year might be the time to really focus on your academics and push yourself to excel. Good luck in the process!
