With an acceptance rate of 26.7% for the class of 2028, the University of California San Diego is a relatively difficult university to enter. However, with a well-rounded profile and a good academic background, students can improve their chances of admission at UCSD

UC San Diego has a GPA requirement of 4.11 (on a scale of 4.29) and doesn't require its applicants to submit SAT/ACT scores. Thus, with an exceptional profile with an emphasis on active participation in co-curricular activities and an insightful college essay, one can secure enrollment in UCSD.
