What GPA do I need to attend Northwestern University grad school?

Question

I'm currently a freshman (honors student) at Valparaiso University, and am in the engineering program, which is ranked top 15% in non-doctoral universities in the Midwest (out of over 200). Anybody have an idea of what GPA I'd need to be considered a prime grad school candidate at, say Northwestern University, or even the University of Michigan?

Answer 1

Over a 3.5 with a GRE math score close to 800.

With grades like this, I was able to get into PhD programs at Berkeley, Duke and Minnesota. i went to Villanova as an undergraduate -- which is ranked the #1 nondoctoral university in the Northeast -- so my background is comparable.

Answer 2

you could start at yet another college and then persist with to flow after some years, yet Harvard and Princeton do no longer take flow pupils and something take decrease than 2% of flow applicants, so your opportunities might probably be even worse the 2d time around. or you could attempt stepping into them for grad college rather, which may well be large to your graduate diploma, yet back, much greater selective than for freshman applicants.
