Admission will be on an individual basis, with a cut-off GPA of 2.75 required to be considered. A 50% composite PCAT score and above will factor into the interview process.

Prospective students must submit at least one set of PCAT scores at the time of application. Students should request that PCAT scores be sent directly to PharmCAS using Code 104 and NOT to UACP. Please visit the Admissions page for more information.

Your grades and admission exam scores are used to assess your academic potential. There is no magic cut off for either parameter. However, you should strive to present a balanced picture between your GPA and your admission exam scores. Your scores need to be about the same as the previous years ENTERING class (not the national average) for each school that you apply to. In general, a GPA of 3.5-3.6 with higher numbers in science will be sufficient.

We really cannot say based only on your GPA, GRE and (for international students) TOEFL scores what your chances of admission and a funding offer are. We look at the entire application, including your courses (and grades in them), your personal statement, and your letters of recommendation.

In general, we look for at least a B undergraduate average, but the overall record is of primary importance. Individual programs may be interested in how an applicant did in specific courses, whether the undergraduate background course work was adequate for the program, and whether the applicant showed a pattern of improvement during undergraduate study. There is no specific cut-off for the GRE.

All applicants to the RMED Program need to have competitive GPA and MCAT scores. Talk to your premedical advisor at your university.

UB SoPPS does not have a minimum PCAT requirement. The average PCAT score of students admitted in the past few years has been around 350. UB SoPPS considers the Percentile Rank (not Scaled Scores). The sum of each item under the Percentile Rank (Verbal Ability, Biology, Reading Comprehension, Quantitative Ability, and Chemistry) determines the score (not the Composite score).

When taking the PCAT, you must indicate to Harcourt that they should send your scores to PharmCAS. We will then receive your PCAT scores on your PharmCAS application. Early Assurance and EOP students must have their PCAT scores sent directly to UB SoPPS.

The SAT or ACT is required for freshman applicants. You can take the tests as many times as you want because we will consider only your best scores. We recommend a 1000-plus combined score on the SAT or a 22-plus on the ACT. Our mean SAT score for incoming freshman is 1070. The mean ACT score is 22. Although the SATs and ACTs are important indicators of your academic ability they are not the only indicators.

The Pharmacy College Admission Test ( PCAT), an exam developed by PsychCorp, a brand of Harcourt Assessment, Inc. is a specialized test that helps identify qualified applicants to pharmacy colleges. It measures general academic ability and scientific knowledge necessary for the commencement of pharmaceutical education.

First we look at the applications on their individual merit. We look at all of the materials and try to arrive at an accurate portrait of the applicant that includes experience, the breadth of previous coursework and recommendations. We do see scores and GPAs in all ranges. In general, however, competitive GRE scores will be in the 600s for the verbal section, in the 600s for the quantitative section, and 5 or above (on a 6-point scale) for the writing section. Competitive GPAs will be 3.

We do not give probabilities or chances of acceptance. In any case, it would not be fair to answer this question based on just scores. The Admissions Committee takes the entire application into consideration when reviewing it and making admission decisions.

A - We take into account many factors when making admission decisions. Our admission process is designed to select a highly talented, diverse undergraduate population from among those who will succeed at Carnegie Mellon. No single grade, factor or score will automatically gain or deny you admission to the Carnegie Mellon University in Qatar. We treat every application individually, taking great care to make our admission decisions fair, thorough and sensitive.

Students should have GRE scores in the 40th percentile or above in the verbal and quantitative portions of the GRE, which correspond to numerical scores of about 470 for the verbal, and 530 for the quantitative. The GPA for the most recent 60 semester credits (or 90 quarter credits) should be 3.0 or above. International students must have a TOEFL score of 570 (or 230 if the computer-based version of the test is taken).

The required minimum academic grade point average (for the final 60 semester hours or 90 quarter hours of undergraduate work) is 3.0 on a four-point scale; normally, those admitted have a grade point average well above this minimum. GRE scores must be submitted, but there is no required minimum. Admission to our program is highly competitive. The average GPA and GRE scores of those admitted will vary slightly from year to year.

The University of Minnesota Graduate School prefers a 3.0 or better undergraduate GPA. The average GPA of incoming MPP, MURP, and MS students is 3.5 (3.2 for MPA students). The Humphrey Institute admissions committee may, in exceptional cases, recommend admission for a candidate whose GPA falls below 3.0 but whose application materials show promise of success in our program.

A scholastic average minimum of a B (3.0 on a 4.0 scale) or better is required for the last 60 semester units or 90 quarter units of undergraduate study. Applicants should keep in mind, however, that the average GPA for entering students is approximately 3.5.

Overall GPA is the GPA derived from all courses taken, regardless of institution. Many graduate programs use this GPA. FIU does not maintain this GPA. Admission GPA is a special GPA available on the Student Academic Support System(SASS) audit for students not fully admitted to the college. This GPA must be a 2.25 for admission to the college of Business Administration. Third- and fourth-year business courses are not used to calculate this GPA. Future employers may request Major GPA.

While no minimum grade point average, class rank or standardized test score is specified for incoming first-year students, these measures must provide evidence of your readiness for college studies in your chosen academic program. For students transferring from another college or university, the minimum grade point average to be considered for admission to most majors is 2.0 on a 4.0 scale. The School of Education and Allied Professions and School of Business Administration require a minimum 2.

The minimum graduate admission requirements include a bachelor’s degree or recognized equivalent from an accredited institution with a satisfactory scholastic average, usually a minimum grade point average of 3.0 (B) for all coursework completed after the first two years of study. For domestic students, you will need to take the GRE General exam (not the Subject Test) Competitive GRE scores are normally 600 or better for both the Verbal and Quantitative Portion.
