GPA Requirements

Overall GPA

An overall grade point average of at least 2.00 is required for graduation. Considered in determining the cumulative average are courses taken at Lafayette or at other member colleges in the Lehigh Valley Association of Independent Colleges (LVAIC) under the cross-registration agreement or affiliated study abroad programs.

Major GPA

Students must complete an approved major program with an average of at least 2.00 in courses taken in the major. In the majority of majors, this normally includes all courses in the major subject area and excludes collateral / co-curricular courses. Interdisciplinary majors and programs are exceptions and will include multiple subject areas as determined by the major / program. Questions should be referred to the Registrar's Office.
