How Georgia Southern University calculates GPA
Georgia Southern 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 Georgia Southern grade scale — what makes it specific
A+ rule: On the Georgia Southern scale, there is no A+ — A = 4.0 is the top grade, and there are no plus or minus grades at all — only A, B, C, D and F.
Failing grade: Georgia Southern University uses "F" for a failing grade (0.0).
Repeated courses & grade replacement
When a course is repeated, only the highest grade earned counts toward the institutional GPA; all attempts remain visible on the transcript.
Academic standing
cumulative institutional GPA below 2.0
Dean’s List
Georgia Southern University names students to its Dean’s List at a term GPA of 3.50.
Academic probation and dismissal
Academic Standing Policy (Warning → Probation → Exclusion, in two escalating cycles): cumulative institutional GPA below 2.0.
Dismissal: repeated failure to clear warning/probation leads to Exclusion (1-year suspension, then a second cycle ending in 3-year suspension).

Good to know
Uses a two-cycle, multi-stage academic standing system (Warning, Probation, Exclusion with escalating 1-year then 3-year suspensions) rather than a single probation/dismissal GPA cutoff.
Every figure on this page was read from Georgia Southern’s own registrar or catalog. Where a rule is set by an individual college rather than the institution, the page says so rather than presenting one college’s number as everyone’s.
