Policy Statement
The following minimum grade‐point average policy applies to all undergraduate students
- Students must maintain a 2.0 GPA in their coursework at the University of Missouri.
- Academic units may impose additional grade‐point requirements.
- In general, the UM GPA is calculated by dividing the total grade points earned in courses on any UM campus by the total number of graded semester hours attempted. If a course attempted within UM is repeated, the previous hours and grade point remain in the student’s GPA. Courses taken credit/no credit, courses earning grades of S, P, I or AT, and courses transferred from non‐University of Missouri institutions are not included in the UM GPA calculations.
