Academic standing note: Academic Warning applies when a student is not on probation or suspension and either the cumulative or major GPA is below 2.25. A major GPA below 2.00 is subject to probation, and cumulative probation thresholds also depend on credits earned. This calculator is an educational planning tool only; official grades, GPA, credits, and academic standing are determined by Rhodes College.
