How Jacksonville State University calculates GPA
Jacksonville 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 Jacksonville State grade scale — what makes it specific
A+ rule: On the Jacksonville 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: Jacksonville State University uses "F" for a failing grade (0.0).
Repeated courses & grade replacement
Only the higher grade is counted in the institutional GPA; all attempts remain on the transcript. Some programs restrict this flexibility.
Academic standing
Cumulative GPA less than the required minimum 2.00 GPA (max 13 semester hours while on probation)
Latin honors at graduation
| Honor | Requirement |
|---|---|
| cum laude | 3.50 to 3.69 |
| magna cum laude | 3.70 to 3.89 |
| summa cum laude | 3.90 to 4.00 |
Dean’s List
Jacksonville State University names students to its Dean’s List at a term GPA of 3.50 to 3.99 with 12 or more GPA hours in the fall and spring semesters.
A 4.00 semester GPA appears to qualify for a separate President's List rather than the Dean's List.
Academic probation and dismissal
Academic probation / suspension / dismissal: Cumulative GPA less than the required minimum 2.00 GPA (max 13 semester hours while on probation).
Dismissal: Dismissal follows a semester of academic suspension in which the suspension semester's term GPA is less than 2.00.

Good to know
Every figure here was read from Jacksonville 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.
