What GPA is generally considered competitive for Rutgers?

I've been thinking about applying to Rutgers and was curious if anyone knows what kind of GPA they typically look for in applicants. Is there a specific threshold I should be aiming for?

Rutgers University, as a moderately selective school, generally looks for applicants with a strong academic background. Although there isn't a specific GPA threshold, having a competitive GPA increases your chances of being admitted.

For reference, the middle 50% of admitted students at Rutgers generally have a GPA between 3.5 and 4.1 (on a weighted 4.0 scale). This means that 25% of admitted students have a GPA below 3.5, while another 25% have a GPA above 4.1. To be a competitive applicant, you should aim for at least a 3.5 GPA, but having a GPA above 4.0 will further strengthen your application.

Keep in mind that your GPA is just one component of the application. Rutgers also takes into consideration factors such as course rigor, extracurricular activities, essays, and test scores (if submitted). While having a competitive GPA is important, make sure to focus on these other aspects as well to present a well-rounded application.
