Baruch College Eligibility

Baruch College, a member of the City University of New York (CUNY), normally demands a high SAT score for admission. For new freshmen, the middle 50% SAT score range is typically between 1170 and 1350, with slightly higher scores for more competitive institutions like the Zicklin School of Business. While Baruch does not have a minimum SAT requirement, applicants with scores in or above this range have a better chance of admission. In addition to standardised exam scores, Baruch evaluates high school GPA, extracurricular activities, and personal statements. As Baruch has adopted test-optional practices in recent years, applicants may still apply without SAT scores, focussing instead on other areas of the application.
