Hey there! I'm thinking about applying to Catawba College, but I'm not sure what they look for in terms of acceptance rate and GPA requirements. Can any current Catawba students or recent applicants help me out? I'd really appreciate it!
Catawba College is a moderately selective school with an acceptance rate of around 67%. Although the acceptance rate is a bit higher, it's important to note that Catawba College considers each applicant holistically, meaning not only your GPA but also your extracurricular activities, recommendation letters, and essays will play a role in the admissions process.
Regarding GPA requirements, Catawba College has an average GPA of 3.66 for admitted students, which typically falls within the range of a B+/A- letter grade. However, keep in mind that this is just an average, and students with a slightly lower or higher GPA also have a chance of being admitted.
It's important to focus on maintaining a strong academic performance in your high school classes and also engage in activities that help demonstrate your interests, leadership, and commitment to your community. Good luck with your application!
