Graduation is dependent upon a minimum GPA of 2.0, utilizing earned grades of all courses taken while pursuing an undergraduate degree.

Individual departments, however, may require a grade of at least a "C" for courses in their majors.

A minimum GPA of 2.5 is required before admission to Teacher Education may be granted. To be graduated from any teacher education program and be recommended for a teaching certificate, a candidate must have met the scholarship requirements and maintain a 2.5 GPA.
