As an undergraduate student at Southern, your academic standing is evaluated at the end of each fall and spring semester and is based on your cumulative GPA (excluding transfer courses). The information presented on this website is intended to help you understand the four levels of academic standing (Good Standing, Warning, Probation and Dismissal) and provide information regarding support available to you.
 

The official academic standing policy can be found in the "academic standards" section of the undergraduate catalog.
