What's the Average GPA at Syracuse University?

Hey, soon-to-be seniors! I'm seriously considering applying to Syracuse University next year and I'm curious, does anyone know the average GPA at Syracuse? Just thinking about how much I have to ramp up my game with grades during the remaining semesters. Any info or advice would be grand!

Hello! Syracuse University is a competitive school and the average GPA of admitted students is around 3.69-3.75 on the 4.0 scale. Of course, this is just an average and the actual range may vary greatly. Some students with a GPA below this average can still get accepted especially if they have strong extracurricular activities, excellent essays, and good letters of recommendation.

However, it's not a bad idea to aim to increase your GPA as much as possible during your senior year. Remember that while colleges do place significant emphasis on your overall academic performance, they also pay close attention to your course rigor, which means taking challenging courses like APs or honors classes can actually be beneficial.

That being said, remember that while academics are crucial, universities like Syracuse use a holistic review process, which means they consider all aspects of your application. So pace yourself and work on every section of your application. Good luck!
