Hey guys, I am thinking about applying to Pace University and I was wondering—what's the usual GPA they're looking for? I can't seem to find a definitive answer online. Thanks in advance!
Hi there! It's great to see that you're interested in applying to Pace University! The good news is that Pace University has a holistic admissions process, meaning that it looks at multiple factors beyond your GPA when making an admissions decision.
However, to give you some ballpark figures, according to the latest data available, the average high school GPA of newly enrolled freshman at Pace University is approximately 3.3 on a 4.0 scale. This means that they somewhat favor students with grades that are above a B/A- average.
Remember though, that's just an average, and Pace does accept students above and below that mark. Factors such as your course rigor (how challenging your classes have been), your SAT/ACT scores (if you choose to submit them), your extracurricular activities, and your application essays will also play significant roles in your application.
Best of luck with your application to Pace!
