Hey, friends! I've been researching the College of Charleston and it seems like a good fit for me. But I wasn't able to find much about the average GPA of accepted students. Anyone got some info or can point me in the right direction?
The College of Charleston in South Carolina generally attracts students with strong academic records. In general, those admitted to the College of Charleston tend to have high school GPAs in the following ranges:
- GPA Range for South Carolina residents: 4.1-4.8 (South Carolina Uniform Grading Policy scale)
- GPA Range for non-residents: 3.7-4.2 (4.0 scale)
However, students with GPAs below or above these ranges are still considered based on other factors. Keep in mind though that it's not just about the numbers. Your course rigor (taking AP, IB, Honors, Dual Enrollment classes), essays, and activities (deep involvement in a few activities is better than minimal involvement in many) also play important roles in the admissions decision.
Please remember that these numbers vary from year to year and can be subject to changes. It would be best to reach out to the school's admissions office for the most accurate and latest data. Good luck with the admissions process!
