GPA Requirements for Graduation Eligibility

Students must hold a GPA (Grade Point Average) of 2.0 or above to be eligible to have an Associate or Bachelor degree conferred, or a certificate awarded, after completing all course requirements.

Courses transferred from other universities, or from a completed APUS program into another APUS program, are not included in the calculation of a student's GPA if applied as residential or transfer credit. In some instances, courses that transfer to a corresponding degree program within two years will be applied as residential credit and be calculated in GPA as applicable. If students complete all of the courses for their program but have a GPA below 2.0, we can issue a letter of program completion, but a student will not actually earn the degree or certificate.
