Hey y'all, I'm considering applying to Arizona State University and my GPA is just okay. What's the average GPA of students who get in there? I'm trying to figure out if I should retake a couple classes or if my current GPA might be enough.
Arizona State University (ASU) is reported to have an average high school GPA of around 3.55 for its admitted students. However, it's important to note that ASU is quite inclusive and prides itself on the diversity of its student body, which includes a range of GPAs.
If your GPA is lower than 3.55, you shouldn't automatically assume you won't get in. ASU admissions takes into account other factors as well, such as the rigor of your high school courses, your extracurricular involvement, and your application essays.
That being said, if there are classes where your grades were particularly low and if retaking those classes feels doable, it could certainly improve your GPA and give an impression of academic growth and commitment to your studies.
