Dean J - SEAS average GPA

<p>I was wondering the average high school and/or college GPA (or range even of either and/or both) of SEAS tranfers. If you could help, that would be great!</p>

<p>I don't think the University releases the information you are requesting. If you go to --</p>

<p><a href="http://www.virginia.edu/uvapodcast/date.php?select_month=8&select_year=2006&Submit=Submit#%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.virginia.edu/uvapodcast/date.php?select_month=8&select_year=2006&Submit=Submit#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>and listen to the 7th podcast on that page entitled: Convocation - The Class of 2010 formally enters the University, President Casteen gives the following information regarding transfer students entering in the Fall of 2006:</p>

<p>Total transfers -- 525, Percent from Virginia -- 72, Number from VCCS -- 180,
Mean GPA of transfer students (from prior institution) -- about 3.7.</p>

<p>That number is not specifically for SEAS but it is probably in the ballpark.</p>

<p>Assuming the engineering school doesn't take less transfers or whatever, SEAS GPAs may be lower than that, since Engineering GPAs are typically lower anyway.</p>

<p>whats funny is the average SEAS GPA is a 3.1...for first years its a 3.0....so would a 3.5 put me in a good posistion? (im in-state, female, 3.7HS, 1380 SAT, applying as second-year)</p>

<p>btw, UVA has very little GPA statistics online anywhere, thats why I was posting here to see if anyone had any general info from elsewhere</p>

<p>bumping this with an additional question...
would SEAS transfers have generally lower GPAs? would a 3.4, in-state be acceptable?</p>
