How Fort Hays State University calculates GPA
Fort Hays 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 Fort Hays State grade scale — what makes it specific
A+ rule: On the Fort Hays State scale, there is no A+ — A = 4.0 is the top grade, and there are no plus or minus grades at all.
Failing grade: Fort Hays State University uses "F" for a failing grade (0.0).
Repeated courses & grade replacement
All attempts stay on the transcript, but only the grade from the most recent (last) enrollment in a course is used for GPA and degree-requirement purposes.

Academic probation and dismissal
Academic probation: Cumulative GPA deficient for credit hours attempted: 1.60-1.99 (0-29 hrs), 1.70-1.99 (30-59 hrs), 1.80-1.99 (60-89 hrs), 1.90-1.99 (90+ hrs).

Good to know
FHSU's failing grade is 'U' (Unsatisfactory), not 'F', and its whole grading scale uses only single letters A-D with no plus/minus grades at all.
Every figure here was read from Fort Hays State’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.
