scores, an important note: <strong>uc admissions has announced that, beginning with students applying for fall 2021 admission, they will be adopting a test-blind policy.<\/strong> check out our post on the a test-optional policy to learn more about this decision and the difference between test-optional, test-blind, and everything in between. <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>\n<a href=\"#contents\"><img

your scores are up to scratch, or if you&#8217;re considering applying to ucr in a few years and want to make sure you have all of your bases covered, it can be useful to look at records of uc riverside sat and act scores.<\/p>\n<p>if you&#8217;re wondering how these scores came into play historically, though&mdash; as you might expect, ucr students tend to receive fairly high scores. this table shows the 25th percentile-75th percentile in each section for the admitted class of 2019.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<table id=\"tablepress-445\" class=\"tablepress tablepress-id-445

you&#8217;re applying for admission for fall of 2021. why? for one, it gives you some measure of where uc riverside students are academically. these scores place the middle 50% of admitted students between the 64th and 94th percentile of all sat takers.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n<a href=\"#contents\"><img decoding=\"async\"

\/><\/a><br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n<a id=\"act\"><\/a><br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>more about uc riverside act scores<\/h2>\n<p>again, just a reminder that <strong>uc riverside will not take act scores into consideration starting with students applying for the class of fall 2021<\/strong>. there are no act requirements whatsoever. <\/p>\n<p>if you&#8217;re trying to figure out your chances of admission, the average act score won&#8217;t help you. however, there are still reasons to keep this information in mind! here&#8217;s a brief snapshot of the most recent data available for uc riverside act scores:<br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<table id=\"tablepress-446\" class=\"tablepress tablepress-id-446 tablepress-responsive\">\n<tbody class=\"row-hover\">\n<tr class=\"row-1 odd\">\n<td

take the act or sat if you&#8217;re applying to uc riverside? no! this can be really helpful for getting scholarship money (though not the <a href=\"https:\/\/dailybruin.com\/2020\/11\/06\/uc-to-use-test-blind-admissions-for-fall-2021-following-court-decision\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">uc regents and chancellor\u2019s scholarships<\/a>, which are now also test-blind) and class placement. it just means that your high school gpa is more important than before.<\/p>\n<p>also, remember that even though uc riverside may

\/><\/a><br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n<a id=\"gpa\"><\/a><br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>uc riverside gpa average<\/h2>\n<p>admitted students to ucr had weighted gpas of 3.69-4.11 (middle 50%). the fact that this is the middle 50% of gpas is key, as it means that the upper 25% of students admitted had average gpas above 4.00 on a weighted scale.<\/p>\n<p>how do schools calculate gpas? use this process for an unweighted (out of 4.00) gpa:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>look at your high school transcript.<\/li>\n<li>give yourself points for each grade:<\/li>\n<li>assign 4 points for each a.<\/li>\n<li>assign 3 points for each b. <\/li>\n<li>assign 2 points for each c.<\/li>\n<li>assign 1 point for each d. <\/li>\n<li>divide the total by the number of graded courses.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>but it&#8217;s the <em>weighted<\/em> gpas at uc riverside that ranged from 3.69-4.11. this happens when schools give additional points for honors or ap courses by assigning 5 points for each a, 4 for each b, and so on. <\/p>\n<p>as uc riverside admissions moves away from using standardized test scores, grades will likely become even more important in the admissions process.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n<a

(a-g)<\/a>. this means taking 15 year-long courses in high school, getting a minimum grade of a c. 11 must be completed before your final year. <\/p>\n<p>you can also meet some of <a
