Hey all! So, Lehigh University is high on my list of colleges I'm planning to apply to. I'm trying to figure out if my GPA matches their standards. Anyone has info on what the average GPA of students at Lehigh typically is?
Sure, I'd be happy to provide some information.
The average GPA of incoming freshmen at Lehigh University tends to be quite high. As of recent data, the average high school GPA was approximately a 3.8 on a 4.0 scale. This suggests that the majority of accepted students tend to be strong academic performers in high school, with typically A- or A grade averages.
However, remember that GPA is just one part of the application. The courses you've taken and the rigor of your high school curriculum are also important. Achieving a strong GPA in challenging courses can further enhance your application.
Lastly, while knowing the average GPA can be useful for establishing a benchmark, keep in mind that it's not a strict cut-off. Students below this average are admitted as well, particularly if they stand out in other areas of their application. Good luck with your application!
