Is it hard to get a good gpa in engineering while at Tufts? What is the average gpa for graduating Tufts engineering students?
From 2001- 2005 average GPA across all engineering degree programs at Tufts was:
3.3 for females
3.24 for males
It is probably similar today, but also will vary some by degree program
There was zero net attrition (as many students transferred in as transferred out) and 99% of freshman graduated in 4 years.
The female/male ratio recently hit 50/50.
Depending on the rigor of your high school curriculum, the first year can be challenging, but Tufts provides lots of support services, advising and mentoring which results in the very low attrition/high graduation percentages.
If you take advantage of these services, you should be OK .
