How Austin Peay State University calculates GPA
Austin Peay State University calculates GPA as a credit-weighted average: multiply each course’s grade points by its credits, add them up, and divide by total credits. The detail that matters is the grade scale.
The Austin Peay grade scale — what makes it specific
A+ rule: On the Austin Peay scale, there is no A+ — A = 4.0 is the top grade, and there are no plus or minus grades at all.
Failing grade: Austin Peay State University uses "F" for a failing grade (0.0).
Repeated courses & grade replacement
The most recent grade counts toward GPA, except that on a third or later attempt at the same course, that grade and all subsequent attempts count.

Good to know
Austin Peay's probation and suspension GPA thresholds are set on a sliding scale by quality hours attempted (e.g. 1.50 at 12-29 hours rising to 2.00 at 60+ hours) rather than a single number.
Every figure here was read from Austin Peay’s own registrar or catalog. Where a rule is set by an individual college rather than the institution, the page says so instead of presenting one college’s number as everyone’s.
