Academic Good Standing

Graduate and post-baccalaureate students at East Stroudsburg University are expected to maintain high academic standards. All graduate and post-baccalaureate students must maintain a cumulative grade point average (GPA) of 3.0 or higher in all coursework in order to be in academic good standing. In the first 6 credits of a graduate program (early pre-candidacy), an overall GPA of 2.5 or higher will be accepted as academic good standing. A graduate student must be in academic good standing to be admitted to degree candidacy and to graduate. Some graduate and post-baccalaureate programs may have more stringent requirements for academic good standing.
