Question about UVA's average GPA for admission

Hey guys! I'm thinking about applying to the University of Virginia. Does anyone here know what the average GPA for accepted students at UVA is? Trying to figure out where I stand at the moment.

3 months ago

The University of Virginia (UVA) is highly competitive, and most admitted students generally have GPAs at the top of their class. As per the unified scale, their average GPA is typically around a 4.32. High grades, especially in challenging AP or dual-enrollment classes, are seen favorably. However, remember that a strong GPA is just one aspect of your application. Extracurricular involvement, essays, letters of recommendation, and test scores (if you choose to submit them) are also critical components and can make your application stand out. A below-average GPA can be partially offset by strengths in these other areas.

So, while it's essential to aim for high grades, remember that the admissions team reviews applications holistically. They consider a robust mix of your academic achievement, leadership, and personality.
