Students applying for admission to Baruch College Campus High School (BCCHS) must have a minimum average of 85 or above in every class (no lower than 85) and a score of two to four on the New York State ELA and Math exams. However, due to the large number of applications the school receives each year, they typically admit students that have a GPA in the mid to high 90s and a score of 3 or 4 on the NYS ELA and math exams. Priority is given to students who reside in Manhattan's District 2 or attend a NYCDOE District 2 Middle School, then to all Manhattan residents or students that attend a NYCDOE Manhattan Middle School and then to students who live in other boroughs of New York City. In 2019, BCCHS started to participate in the New York City Diversity In Admissions (DIA) Pilot Program. As part of the DIA program, priority will be given to District 2 students or District 2 residents who are eligible for Free- or Reduced-Priced Lunch status for 34% of seats.
