Auburn University GPA Calculator

Auburn assigns final grades on a 4.0-based letter scale that determines each student's semester and cumulative GPA. Passing grades are A (superior), B (good), C (acceptable), and D — passing for undergraduate students but failing for graduate students. S (satisfactory) is used only for courses taken under the S-U grading option.

Failing grades are F (failure), FA (failure for excessive absences), U (unsatisfactory), and WF (withdrawn failing). S and U grades awarded under the S-U option do not enter grade-point computations; the other failing grades (F, FA, WF) are all calculated into the GPA as an F.

Only coursework attempted at Auburn University counts toward a student's grade-point average; the transcript reports both a semester GPA and a cumulative GPA.

• S and U grades, used only for courses taken under the S-U grading option, do not enter into grade-point computations.
• A junior or senior with a cumulative GPA of at least 2.5 on 20 or more hours earned at Auburn may elect the S-U option for one course per term, up to 12 credits total, excluding Core Curriculum courses and courses required by the student's curriculum.
• All failing grades — F, FA (failure for excessive absences), and WF (withdrawn failing) — are calculated into the GPA as an F.
• An IP (In Progress) grade, used in professional programs such as Pharmacy and Veterinary Medicine, is not calculated into the GPA until it is cleared.
• A grade of IN (Incomplete) must be resolved within 6 months or it automatically becomes the grade pre-designated by the instructor.
