Academic Standing

 

Boise State University maintains minimum GPA standards that you must meet.

Good Standing

To remain in good academic standing, you must maintain a minimum grade-point average (GPA) for the number of credits you have earned.  The table below shows the minimum Boise State GPA you must have in relation to the total cumulative credits earned (includes both transfer and Boise State credits) to remain in good standing.

Minimum Boise State University GPA Necessary to

Remain in Good Academic Standing

Cumulative Credits Earned (Transfer and Boise State)

Minimum Boise State Cumulative GPA

BSU GPA only - Transfer GPA not included

0 to 6 1.00
7 to 32 1.60
33 to 64 1.80
65 or more 2.00

Probation/Dismissal

If you fail to maintain the minimum Boise State University GPA shown in the above table, you are placed on probation.  At the end of your next semester at Boise State University, the university reviews your record and takes one of the following actions:

bullet If your cumulative Boise State GPA meets the requirements of the above table, you will be removed from probation.
bullet If your cumulative Boise State GPA does not meet the requirements of the above table, but your semester GPA is 2.00 or higher, you will remain on continued probation.
bullet If your cumulative Boise State GPA does not meet the requirements of the above table, and you did not earn a semester GPA of 2.00 or higher, you will be dismissed from the university.

 

NOTE:

If you transfer credits to Boise State University and are admitted on probation, you must attain at least a 2.0 GPA in your first semester.  If you fail to do so, you will be dismissed from the university.

If you leave the university while on probation, you will remain on probation when you return - even if in the meantime you have attended another institution. 

If you are dismissed from the university, you are barred from enrolling for one semester (fall or spring) after the dismissal and for one year after any subsequent dismissal.  If you wish to appeal this waiting period, you must file an appeal with the University Appeals Committee.  This form is available from the Registrar's Office, Administration Building, Room 102.
