Columbus State University (CSU) GPA Calculator

Columbus State University calculates several distinct GPAs: Institutional GPA (CSU coursework only), Overall GPA (CSU plus all other institutions attended), Degree progress GPA (courses applied to the declared program), and Major GPA (courses in the major department).

Students who repeat a course for which credit was already earned, at CSU or by transfer, forfeit all but the highest grade in the Institutional and Overall GPA calculations, except for courses that may be repeated for credit.

The progress of all students is evaluated at the end of each semester based on institutional and semester grade point averages.

• University Support Status occurs when a student's institutional GPA falls below 2.0.
• Continued University Support Status occurs when a student on University Support Status achieves a term GPA of 2.0 or higher but an institutional GPA still below 2.0.
• Removal from University Support Status occurs when a student's institutional GPA equals or exceeds 2.0.

Students on University Support Status must participate in CSU's University Support Program as a condition of registering for courses the following term.

All students must have a minimum institutional and overall grade point average of 2.00 to graduate. Specific degree programs may have higher requirements.

Semester honors require a GPA calculated on 12 or more hours, with no remedial courses and no incomplete grades: President's List (GPA 3.8-4.0) and Dean's List (GPA 3.6-3.79).

Graduation honors for baccalaureate degree recipients are based on grade point average: Summa Cum Laude (3.80-4.00), Magna Cum Laude (3.60-3.79), and Cum Laude (3.40-3.59).

For associate degree recipients: High Honors (3.80-4.00) and Honors (3.50-3.79).
