Tuck Admissions Insights: Education Information

Your academic record, along with test scores and professional experience, helps assess the Smart criterion. Here’s how to share your academic history:

Undergraduate Degree and Other Schools:

  • List your primary undergraduate school and any additional schools attended (exclude study abroad programs and non-degree coursework).
  • Include details like major, institution name, GPA (if numeric), grading scale, degree dates, and class rank (if applicable).
  • Use “My School is Not Listed” if your school isn’t found in the search.

Other Education Information:

  • Indicate postgraduate non-degree courses and professional certifications.
  • Provide course and certification details, and any additional transfer school information.

Transcripts:

  • Upload transcripts for all undergraduate and graduate schools attended, including transfer schools.
  • Submit both the original and a certified translation if transcripts are not in English.
  • Unofficial transcripts are acceptable initially; official copies are required upon enrollment.

Assessing Your Academic History:

  • Report your GPA as per your institution’s scale; Tuck does not standardize GPAs.
  • No minimum GPA is required; three-year bachelor’s degrees are equally considered.
  • The admissions committee evaluates grades within the context of your school’s grading scale and rigor.

Optional Information:

  • Use this section to explain any academic performance issues.
  • Share additional achievements in the resume and Activities and Awards sections.
