Hi, guys! I'm interested in applying to North Carolina State University next fall. For those who know, what’s their typical range for accepted GPA? Trying to set my academic goals, thanks!
Sure, happy to help with your question! North Carolina State University (NCSU), like many universities, doesn't publish a minimum GPA requirement. Admissions decisions are made based on a comprehensive review of all components of the application.
However, looking at the data from past accepted students, you can get an idea of the typical GPA range. The middle 50% range for weighted GPA is 4.25 to 4.5. However, those numbers are just averages and plenty of students who are admitted have GPA’s both above and below these numbers.
Remember, while GPA is an important part of your application, NCSU, like many other universities, also looks at other factors like course rigor, extracurricular activities, and application essays. So, don't stress too much about hitting exactly the average - just aim to excel in your academics and engage in meaningful activities outside of class. Good luck with your academic goals!
