UF GPA
How University of Florida calculates GPA
University of Florida (Florida) 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 UF grade scale — what makes it specific
A+ rule: UF does NOT award A+. The scale runs A (4.0) down to D- (0.67), with E for failing. Note UF uses the .67/.33 increments (A- = 3.67), not .7/.3.
Failing grade: University of Florida uses "E" for a failing grade (0.0).
Repeated courses & grade replacement
Repeated UF courses are counted in the GPA as many times as they're recorded (all attempts count) — UF does NOT do grade replacement. Credit is awarded only once. Once you earn a C (2.0)+ you generally can't repeat the course.
Academic standing
Minimum 2.0 cumulative GPA to graduate; GPA shown to two decimals and never rounded up (e.g. 3.248 displays as 3.24).
Latin honors at graduation
There is no university-wide cut-off at University of Florida — each college sets its own. The college of Liberal Arts and Sciences (thresholds set per college; CLAS example shown).

These cut-offs are recalculated and apply to current UF Undergraduate Catalog (specific catalog year not printed on page). Check the registrar for the current year before relying on them.
School of Natural Resources and Environment defers to the College of Agricultural and Life Sciences thresholds (not listed separately). Page does not print an explicit catalog year.
Dean’s List
The threshold is set by each college. set by each college; range 3.20-3.75
| College or school | GPA | Minimum credits |
|---|---|---|
| College of Agricultural and Life Sciences | 3.70 | Minimum 12 credits; no S/U, N or I grades |
| College of Liberal Arts and Sciences | 3.75 | Minimum 12 letter-graded credits; no dropped courses or incomplete grades |
Academic probation and dismissal
Academic probation: less than a 2.0 cumulative UF grade point average.
Dismissal: cumulative GPA at or below the Grade Point Deficit table value for the student's cumulative UF credits (e.g. 1.00 at 15 credits, 1.50 at 30 credits, 1.75 at 60 credits, 1.87 at 116+ credits).
The minimum cumulative GPA depends on how far through the degree a student is:
| Class level | Cumulative GPA |
|---|---|
| 8 credits | 0.12 or below |
| 15 credits | 1.00 or below |
| 30 credits | 1.50 or below |
| 60 credits | 1.75 or below |
| 116+ credits | 1.87 or below |

Good to know
Two UF specifics: failing is 'E' (not F), and there is no A+. UF also uses .67/.33 grade points (A- = 3.67, B+ = 3.33), and truncates the displayed GPA rather than rounding up. All repeat attempts count toward the GPA — there's no grade forgiveness.
