Admission into a program at the College of Allied Health may be based on several factors within your application including, but not limited to, GPAs, assessment scores, interview scores, etc. Additionally, each application cycle is unique based on the strength of the applicant pool at that time. Admissions statistics can be useful in understanding where you may currently stand compared to a previous cycle but should not be used as a definitive measure of whether your application will be considered competitive due to the various factors that go into a decision.
The statistics below represent the averages of the applicants accepted into each program for the previous admissions cycle. As they are averages of the entire pool, admitted students fell above and below the listed metrics. You should use the statistics as a guide on what areas to focus on if attempting to improve scores. To assist in calculating the credits you will need to improve your current GPA, you can use the OU GPA calculator. If the program you are applying to is not listed below, it is because admission to the program is considered on a case-by-case basis for all who meet the minimum requirements.
