I’m planning to apply this Fall as an Anthropology major. Due to a lot of personal circumstances, I’ve messed up a lot these past terms. I’ve calculated what my final GPA would be in the best case scenario. Would a 3.65 GPA be competitive enough? Anyone get in with the same GPA or lower?
The admit rate for Anthropology (BS) was 20% with the 25th percentile GPA being 3.53 and 75th percentile being 3.85.
The admit rate for Anthropology (BA) was 56% with 25th percentile GPA being 3.50 and 75th percentile being 3.85.
You’d have better chance with the BA but your GPA does make it possible for both. It is not a sure thing but you are within the GPA range for those two majors.
