Admissions, Academics, and Finances
| Admission Requirements | We take a holistic approach to application review, which means we give equal weight to all application elements, and therefore do not disqualify an applicant based on not meeting a minimum GPA requirement or obtaining a minimum score on a standardized test. However, competitive applicants tend to have unweighted GPAs of 3.3 or higher, and if they decide to submit them, standardized test scores in the 80% or higher. If one portion of an applicant’s file is weaker, then we like to see that all other elements are very strong. |
