Hey guys! I'm looking into applying to the University of North Georgia and wanted to know their admission requirements, especially when it comes to GPA and test scores. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
Hey there! The University of North Georgia is a great choice, and I'm happy to provide some information regarding their admission requirements.
For GPA, the University of North Georgia generally looks for a minimum high school GPA of 2.0 on a 4.0 scale. However, it's important to note that a higher GPA will make you more competitive in the admissions process. According to the university's Common Data Set, the average high school GPA of enrolled first-year students is around 3.5.
Regarding test scores, UNG accepts both SAT and ACT scores for consideration. For SAT scores, the middle 50% range for admitted students is approximately 990 to 1190. On the ACT, the middle 50% range is between 19 to 25. Keep in mind that submitting scores within or above these ranges will make you a stronger applicant.
In addition to GPA and test scores, UNG will also consider your high school coursework, particularly the rigor of classes you've taken (honors, AP, IB, or dual enrollment), extracurricular activities, and your application essay (if required). Make sure to tailor your application to highlight these aspects and evidence of personal growth or overcoming challenges.
To summarize, aim for a GPA above 2.0 (preferably around 3.5 to be competitive) and an SAT score within 990-1190 or an ACT score within 19-25 to increase your chances of admission. Good luck with your application to the University of North Georgia!
