Louisiana State University Shreveport (LSUS) GPA Calculator

When a student repeats a course, all grades earned count toward the semester, LSUS, and cumulative GPA, but only the last attempt counts toward degree credit — a repeated F loses the prior credit.

A student unenrolled for three or more consecutive years may, once only, declare academic bankruptcy on all previously attempted coursework; bankrupted work is not used in computing the GPA, though LSUS still counts those grades when awarding degrees with honors.

Undergraduate students are expected to maintain an overall (cumulative) GPA of at least 2.0 on all college work attempted. A student is placed on academic probation whenever the overall GPA falls below 2.0, and remains on probation until the overall GPA reaches 2.0 or higher.

A student on probation is suspended following any semester in which the semester GPA is below 2.0. First and second suspensions last one semester; subsequent suspensions last one calendar year. After a first suspension, a student may petition their Dean for Conditional Readmission, typically limited to six credit hours of LSUS coursework; earning below a 2.0 GPA during that readmission semester results in a second suspension.

Each semester LSUS honors full-time undergraduate students whose semester GPA is at least 3.5 (Dean's List) or at least 3.8 (Chancellor's List).

For converting numerical grades on transcripts from other institutions to LSUS letter grades, LSUS uses: A (93–100), B (85–92), C (77–84), D (65–76), F (below 65). LSUS states this scale is not the grading scale used for courses taken at LSUS itself — it applies only to transfer-grade conversion. LSUS also does not recognize repeated-course policies from other colleges or universities.
