Hi everyone! I'm aiming to apply to Georgetown University but I'm not sure about their GPA requirement for admission. Does anyone know what a competitive GPA might be for Georgetown? Thanks in advance!
Hello! Georgetown University, like many other selective schools, doesn't have an explicit GPA requirement for applicants. However, a competitive applicant typically has a high GPA, which demonstrates strong academic performance throughout high school.
Admitted students usually have a weighted GPA around 4.0 or higher on a 4.0 scale, often in the top 10% of their class. It's important to keep in mind that Georgetown University reviews applications holistically, so having a GPA within this range doesn't guarantee admission, but it's a significant factor in the evaluation.
Aside from your GPA, make sure to focus on other components of your application, such as your extracurricular activities, essays, and letters of recommendation. Showcasing your unique interests and experiences can help you stand out in the highly competitive applicant pool at Georgetown.
