How Seton Hall University calculates GPA
Seton Hall 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 Seton Hall grade scale — what makes it specific
A+ rule: On the Seton Hall scale, there is no A+ — A = 4.0 is the top grade, and there is no D-.
Failing grade: Seton Hall University uses "F" for a failing grade (0.0).
Repeated courses & grade replacement
A retake does not simply replace the original: when a Seton Hall course is repeated at Seton Hall, the higher of the two grades is the one counted in the GPA, and the excluded grade is flagged 'E' on the transcript.
Academic standing
Cumulative GPA below 1.75 (freshman), 1.90 (sophomore) or 2.00 (junior/senior)
Latin honors at graduation
| Honor | Requirement |
|---|---|
| cum laude | 3.395 |
| magna cum laude | 3.595 |
| summa cum laude | 3.895 |
Dean’s List
Seton Hall University names students to its Dean’s List at a term GPA of 3.4 with 12 undergraduate credits.
Academic probation and dismissal
Academic probation: Cumulative GPA below 1.75 (freshman), 1.90 (sophomore) or 2.00 (junior/senior).
Dismissal: No fixed GPA; after a second consecutive probationary semester the dean conducts a suspension/dismissal review.
The minimum cumulative GPA depends on how far through the degree a student is:
| Class level | Cumulative GPA |
|---|---|
| freshman | 1.75 |
| sophomore | 1.90 |
| junior | 2.00 |
| senior | 2.00 |

Good to know
Seton Hall sets Latin honors at unusually precise cutoffs (3.395 / 3.595 / 3.895) and, on a repeated course, keeps the higher grade in the GPA rather than the most recent one.
Every figure here was read from Seton Hall’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.
