Average GPA for Columbia University?

Could someone let me know the average GPA for students admitted to Columbia University? My current GPA is decent, but I'm not sure if it's competitive enough for Columbia.

3 months ago

Columbia University is one of the most competitive schools in the nation, and they typically admit students with exceptional academic records. The average unweighted GPA of a student admitted to Columbia University is around a 3.9 out of 4.0.

In terms of weighted GPA, the average is often above a 4.0 due to the rigor of the classes students take in high school. Remember, though, that these are averages. There are students accepted with lower GPAs, and there are students rejected with 4.0s.

Your GPA is just one part of your application. Make sure to focus on other aspects as well, such as your SAT/ACT score (if submitting), extracurricular activities, and essays, to make your application as competitive as possible. It’s also always a good idea to have a mix of reach, match, and safety schools on your college list.
