Hey! Looking into applying to Baruch but couldn't find clear information. Does anyone have an idea about the GPA requirements for admission? If any, how strict are they about this requirement?
Baruch College, part of the City University of New York (CUNY) system, is a popular choice for students, especially those interested in business and finance.
In terms of GPA, while there isn't a strict cutoff, Baruch is quite competitive. The average GPA of admitted students is typically around 3.3. This average is, however, just that - an average. It suggests that there is a range of GPAs among admitted students, and not all successful applicants will have GPAs that are above this average.
It's important to remember that while GPA is an essential part of your application, admissions officers evaluate applications holistically. This means, they will also consider other aspects of your application such as your standardized test scores, your high school curriculum rigor, your personal statement, and your extracurricular activities along with your GPA.
Hope this helps and best of luck with your application!
