George Washington University (GWU) evaluates applicants based on academic performance, standardized test scores, and extracurricular involvement. A strong high school GPA, typically 3.5 or higher, is preferred. SAT scores between 1300-1460 or ACT scores of 30-33 are competitive. International students must demonstrate English proficiency via TOEFL (90+) or IELTS (6.5+).
Recommendation letters, essays, and leadership experiences enhance applications. Some programs may require portfolios or interviews. Transfer students need a minimum 2.7 GPA. GWU practices holistic review, considering individual circumstances. Financial ability is not a criterion, as need-blind admission applies to domestic applicants.
