University of Florida GPA Calculator
The University of Florida fails students with an E and counts every attempt of a repeated course in your GPA. Enter your courses below for your term and cumulative UF GPA, then see how S/U, the Dean's List by college, graduation honors and dismissal work.

UF's Grade Points
| Grade | Points | Grade | Points |
|---|---|---|---|
| A | 4.0 | C | 2.0 |
| A- | 3.67 | C- | 1.67 |
| B+ | 3.33 | D+ | 1.33 |
| B | 3.0 | D | 1.0 |
| B- | 2.67 | D- | 0.67 |
| C+ | 2.33 | E (fail) | 0 |
UF's failing grade is E. There's no A+. Courses taken before May 11, 2009 used an older half-point scale (B+ = 3.5), so older transcripts can look different.
UF shows GPAs to the hundredths place and never rounds up: a 3.248 is a 3.24. Grades from other colleges are never averaged into your UF GPA. Example: 3 credits of A- (11.01), 4 of B+ (13.32), 3 of B (9.00), 3 of C+ (6.99) and 2 of A (8.00) give 48.32 ÷ 15 = 3.221, recorded as 3.22.
Repeating a Course: Every Attempt Counts
This is UF's biggest trap. A repeated UF course counts in your GPA as many times as you take it; the new grade does not replace the old one. Credit is awarded only once.
- Once you earn a C (2.0) or higher, you can't repeat the course without an approved college petition.
- A repeat taken at another school doesn't touch your UF GPA; only UF grades count.
- If you arrived with AP or IB credit and then take and pass the same course at UF, you get the UF grade and lose the exam credit.
Watch out: passing a course you failed earns you the credit, but the E stays in your average. To model it here, enter both attempts as separate rows.
Incompletes and the 150-Day Rule
An incomplete first appears as I* (or N* if no grade was reported) and doesn't count. If it hasn't been changed after 150 days, it becomes a failing I or NG worth 0 in your GPA. Graduating students don't get I*: they receive a failing I directly.
S/U: One Elective per Term
If you're in good standing and not on probation, you can take one course per term S/U, in electives only; General Education and Writing Requirement courses are excluded. An S requires a C (2.0) or better. The deadline is Friday of the third week in fall, spring and Summer C. Once approved, it can't be switched back to a letter grade.
President's Honor Roll and Dean's List
The President's Honor Roll needs a perfect 4.0 on at least 15 graded credits in fall or spring (12 in summer). Dean's List rules belong to each college:
| College | GPA | Fall/spring credits |
|---|---|---|
| Agricultural and Life Sciences | 3.70 | 12 |
| The Arts | 3.50 | 12 |
| Warrington (Business) | 3.70 or 3.50 | 12 or 15 |
| Design, Construction and Planning | 3.70 | 12 |
| Education | 3.75 | 12 |
| Engineering | 3.20 | 14 |
| Health and Human Performance | 3.50 or 3.70 | 15 or 12 |
| Journalism and Communications | 3.75 | 12 |
| Liberal Arts and Sciences | 3.75 | 12 letter-graded, no drops or incompletes |
| Pharmacy | 3.50 | 12 |
| Public Health and Health Professions | 3.50 | 15 |
S/U and internship courses don't count, and a 3.495 is a 3.49, not 3.50.
Graduation Honors Use Your Upper-Division GPA
UF awards cum laude, magna cum laude and summa cum laude, but the rules are set by college and major, and many use your upper-division GPA, meaning courses taken after you reach 60 credits. For example, Art and Art History requires 3.5 (cum), 3.75 (magna) and 3.90 (summa) upper-division GPAs, plus a thesis or project for magna and summa. Accounting uses 3.2, 3.6 and 3.8 in upper-division accounting and overall.
Transfer and S/U credits are excluded, and magna and summa usually also need your major's extra requirements. Check your major's line in the UF catalog.
Probation and the Dismissal Table
A UF cumulative GPA below 2.0 can put you on academic probation until it's back to 2.0. Dismissal uses a grade point deficit table: you're dismissed if your GPA is at or below the figure for your UF cumulative credits. Selected rows:
| UF cumulative credits | Dismissed at or below |
|---|---|
| 8 | 0.12 |
| 12 | 0.75 |
| 15 | 1.00 |
| 20 | 1.25 |
| 30 | 1.50 |
| 40 | 1.62 |
| 50 | 1.70 |
| 60 | 1.75 |
These credits exclude S/U, withdrawn courses and credits removed by the repeat or non-degree policies. You need at least a 2.0 UF GPA to graduate.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does retaking a class replace the grade at UF?
No. Every attempt of a repeated UF course counts in your GPA, although credit is awarded once. You can't repeat a course after earning a C or higher without a petition.
What is an E grade at UF?
A failing grade, worth 0 grade points and counted in your GPA.
Does UF round GPA?
No. GPAs are shown to the hundredths and never rounded up, so 3.248 becomes 3.24.
What GPA is the Dean's List at UF?
It depends on your college: for example 3.75 in Liberal Arts and Sciences on 12 letter-graded credits, 3.20 in Engineering on 14 credits, and 3.70 (12 credits) or 3.50 (15 credits) in Business.
How many S/U courses can I take at UF?
One per term, in electives only. An S requires a C or better.
