How Can I Improve my GPA with Acadeum?

Because courses taken through Acadeum show up on your transcript, you can find an equivalent course to the one you want to replace. Upon completion of that course with a higher grade, you can replace your low grade with a better one to improve your academic standing.

Using Acadeum to improve your GPA is a strategic way to get back on track. You should consider this option if you are:

• Meeting Major Requirements: You need to reach a specific GPA threshold to officially enter or stay in your chosen major.

• Avoiding Academic Probation: You need to boost your grade point average to stay in good standing with the school. 

• Recovering from a Difficult Term: You had a tough semester and want to replace a low grade to reflect your true academic potential.

• Regaining Eligibility: You need to meet a minimum GPA requirement to remain eligible for financial aid or student-athlete participation.

Important: Grade replacement policies—including which grades can be replaced and how many times you can retake a course—are determined by your school. Always verify your school's specific retake rules with your Registrar or Academic Advisor before requesting a course.
