Arizona State University GPA Calculator

How grades convert to points here

Arizona State University uses full plus/minus grading, so an A- is 3.7, a B+ is 3.3, and each modifier moves the average by 0.3 points. Over a four-year transcript the difference between consistently earning A- and consistently earning A is roughly a third of a grade point — enough to cross most honors thresholds.

Standing, honors lists, and retakes

Good academic standing at Arizona State University requires a cumulative GPA of at least 2.0. Falling below it typically triggers academic warning, then probation, with dismissal only after sustained shortfall — the escalation gives time to recover.

Dean's List recognition requires a term GPA of 3.50 or above. It is calculated per term rather than cumulatively, so one strong semester earns it regardless of what came before — and one weak semester loses it regardless of a strong cumulative average.

The part students usually miss

Academic standing is a graduated escalation: first term below 2.0 GPA gives a warning (not probation); only a second, non-first-term shortfall triggers probation, and two consecutive probation semesters without reaching 2.0 leads to disqualification.
