Frequently Asked Questions

What is the minimum GPA required to apply?

Applicants are required to have a cumulative GPA of at least 2.5 on a 4.0 scale. Students considering in enrolling in our Nursing program are required to have a minimum of 3.0. Students with a GPA less than 2.5 may be considered for admission and should discuss their academic performance in their essay.

Which courses are transferable?

Students can obtain transfer credits for most courses with a grade of C or better, taken at regionally accredited institutions. Transferred credits will count toward a specific requirement if a similar course is offered at Pace and has been evaluated by the department's chair.
