High School Grades

• GPA of 2.5 or higher on a U.S. 4.0 scale
• GPA of 3.5 or higher on a U.S. 5.0 scale
• Average grades of 80 or higher on a 100-point scale
• Average grades of 8 or higher on a 10-point scale
• IGCSE scores of C or higher in five or more subjects AND three A-level certificates with a C or higher

If your high school does not use one of the scales listed above, your grades will be converted to a U.S. 4.0 scale. Scores are determined by the AACRAO International Education Services.

The difficulty level and grade distribution of your courses are considered when determining your admission status.

We recommend that you apply six to 12 months before the start of the semester in which you wish to enroll at Mizzou.
