<p>Here are some stats for this year's group, in case future UCSD kids want to know.</p>
<p>14,400 applicants for the Jacobs School of Engineering
47 Jacobs Scholars chosen</p>
<p>4.36 Average weighted GPA
2350 Average SAT</p>
<p>Overall pool stats:
4.1~ GPA
2000~ SAT</p>
<p>1100 was accepted out of 14400 is 7.6% admit rate.</p>
<p>1100 students in total was accepted out of 14400? Are you sure?</p>
<p>Yes, I’m sure. They told us the 1100 seats at the Tritons day. Not sure what is the yield rate for COE, so it has to be adjusted for the yield rate to come up with the correct admit rate. I’m sure it’s not 7.7% because that is lower than MIT.</p>
<p>Please note that the UCSD Jacobs School Scholars are recipients of the merit-based Jacobs School Scholarship and does not refer to all students in the Jacobs School of Engineering. Thus, anonman’s statistic that only 47/14400 (0.326%) of UCSD COE applicants are chosen for the Jacobs School Scholarship is accurate.</p>
<p>Is there a thread with previous Jacob Scholar’s Stats?
I could only find a couple here and there.</p>
<p>During our welcome reception, I recall that the average SAT score is roughly 2330 - 2350, with close to 4.0 UW/4.6-7W average GPA. For reference, most Jacobs Scholars have received offers of admissions from Ivy League schools and merit scholarships from UC Berkeley and LA, hope this helps!</p>
<p>EDIT: anonman’s 4.36 GPA is accurate - forgot that UC’s only accept a limited number of AP credits into GPA. </p>
