John Jay requires on average a 20 ACT score, but that doesn't mean that it is that easy to get it. Try your hardest and you'll have a better chance of going in. John Jay has a 47% appearance rate so that means you have almost a 50/50 percent chance of attending this school. Just like any other school you must first fill in an application. For this school the cost to submit a application is $65 if you are new and $75 if you transferring. Another good thing is that you only need a minimum of a 2.0 GPA but that doesn't mean you should try harder and reach that 4.0 GPA. You do not have to interview to get into the school either.
