GPA and Test Scores
High School GPA and Test Score Requirements
New first-year students entering in 2023 or 2024 who do not have an ACT or SAT score will automatically be considered for admission if their cumulative unweighted GPA is 2.60-4.00. Those who have cumulative GPAs of 2.30 - 2.59 will be admitted through the Vandal Gateway Program. Students in this GPA range are also welcome to appeal through our Admissions Committee. Every student who has a test score is encouraged to provide it for admission as well as class placement.
