Exclusive tips: How to improve your Laurier GPA (2026 edition)
- ✔️ Repeat courses wisely – Laurier allows course retakes; the higher grade replaces the original in GPA calculation (check faculty rules).
- ✔️ Focus on high-credit courses – a 1.0 credit course influences your GPA twice as much as a 0.5 credit. Prioritize performance in full-year classes.
- ✔️ Use academic standing thresholds – to avoid probation, maintain GPA above 5.0 (C average). For Dean’s Honour List, aim for 10.0+ (A-/A range).
- ✔️ Track your "Major GPA" – some programs require higher major GPA; our calculator helps you simulate future grades.
