While a 3.0 GPA is considered minimum for application, the average GPA of recent classes has been between 3.6-3.7. Many students are discouraged from considering PT school based on such information but should recall that this is only an average and reflects scores both higher and lower. 3.0 reflects a typical graduate standard. Students at or below this may have difficulty completing the rigor of graduate school courses.

The weight given to standardized admissions exams varies from program to program and discipline to discipline. If your exam score is not reflective of your academic accomplishments and capabilities, it is often a good idea to ask one of your faculty recommenders to address it in the letter. This can be particularly effective if you have taken advanced courses or done independent study with that professor.

We normally tell students they should be in the B+ range to be competitive. The admission process incorporates 1) overall GPA; 2) prerequisite GPA; and 3) GRE score. Each of these areas is weighted equally. Thereby, the applicant could remain in the competitive range if they were low in one area i.e. overall GPA and up in the other two. Historically, applicants with GRE scores below 900 are not competitive.

You need to be aware of a sobering reality: admission to a health professions school is a highly competitive process. This means, of course, that these schools will draw candidates from the high end of the GPA range. Consider these statistics.

At Upstate Medical University, the median overall GPA for accepted applicants is around 3.65 (3.57 for the science GPA).

If your GPA is 2.75 or higher, you are eligible to be admitted as a regular student. If your GPA is a 2.0 through 2.74, then you may be admitted as a student on probation status. Consultation with your program coordinator and the approval of the graduate dean is required. Removal of the probationary status requires that you receive at least a B in your first two 3-hour classes. Generally, books cost $75-$100/term.

The Graduate School requires a minimum undergraduate GPA of 2.75. The GPA can be derived from the last 60 hours of undergraduate work if necessary. If your GPA is still below 2.75 you may be admitted as a “provisional” student and you will have an opportunity to earn a 3.0 GPA on 12 hours of graduate course work and have the provisional status removed. Please note that programs reserve the right to require a higher GPA for admission, contact the program coordinator for information.

GPA is only one of a number of factors considered by law schools during the admissions process. Admissions officers recognize that a number of factors can contribute to a low undergraduate GPA that do not necessarily reflect on a student's ability to succeed in law school. A high LSAT score and a strong record of volunteer service or extra-curricular activities, combined with an effective personal statement and solid letters of recommendation will often offset a low GPA.

GPAs have ranged betwe en 3.4 - 4.0 for this program but no minimium has been established. The general GRE should be taken with scores at least 1800(Fall '99.)
