Hey, aiming for University of Colorado Boulder here. Anyone have any idea what GPA they're looking for? I am trying to plan out my junior year effectively. Cheers!
Hello! The University of Colorado Boulder, like many universities, doesn't have a specific GPA cut-off. However, the average admitted student's High School GPA tends to be in the range of 3.59 - 4.00. If your GPA falls around or above this range, you're likely to have a competitive chance for admission.
Remember that your GPA is just one part of your application. Factors such as your course rigor, extracurricular involvement, essays, and letters of recommendation also play a significant role in your application review process. So, while it's important to maintain a strong academic record, it's also essential to invest time and effort into these other areas.
It's good that you're thinking about this early, as your junior year is generally seen as an important one in terms of classes and extracurricular activities. Best of luck!
