What is the average GPA of incoming students in the OS program?
The average cumulative GPAs of entering students from 2004-2008 ranged between 3.5 and 3.6. It is important to remember that this is an average, and there is no minimum GPA requirement. We encourage students to maintain a strong cumulative GPA in order to remain competitive with their peers, but all applications will be forwarded to the Admissions Committee, regardless of their cumulative GPA. Also remember that GPA is not the only criterion for gaining admission to the program. The Admissions Committee also reviews student performance in the three pre-requisite courses and the quality of in the essays submitted with the application.
