CSDCAS rules that affect your numbers

  • All repeated courses count. Retakes do not replace the earlier grade.
  • All institutions attended are combined into cumulative GPA calculations.
  • Quarter-hour coursework is converted to semester hours using Γ— 0.667.
  • WF is treated as F at 0.00, while a regular W is excluded.

About This CSDCAS GPA Calculator

This CSDCAS GPA calculator is built for speech-language pathology and audiology applicants who need to estimate the GPA views commonly reviewed in M.A./M.S. SLP, Au.D., and related Communication Sciences and Disorders admissions: overall GPA, cumulative undergraduate GPA, CSD major GPA, science GPA, upper division GPA, lower division GPA, prerequisite GPA, and last-60 GPA. It converts quarter-hour coursework into semester hours using the standard Communication Sciences and Disorders Centralized Application Service approach, combines coursework across all institutions attended, and reflects the rule that repeated courses still count.

How to Use the CSDCAS GPA Calculator

Follow these steps for an accurate CSDCAS GPA result

1Enter Every Graded Course Attempt

Add every graded course from every college or university you attended. CSDCAS includes repeated coursework and combines all institutions when it recalculates GPA from transcripts.

2Classify CSD, Science, and Non-Science Courses

Choose CSD, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, Other Science, or Non-Science for each course. Those categories determine your CSD major GPA, science GPA, and non-science GPA.

3Set Level, Year, and Units

Mark each course as lower division, upper division, post-bacc, or graduate, choose the academic year, and select semester or quarter credit. Quarter hours are converted to semester hours using the CSDCAS 0.667 factor.

4Flag Prerequisites and Last 60 Credits

Use the prerequisite toggle for common SLP and audiology requirements like psychology, linguistics, statistics, and biology. Use the last-60 toggle if you want to estimate the most recent 60 credits GPA programs often emphasize.

5Compare the Main CSDCAS GPA Views

Review your overall GPA, cumulative undergraduate GPA, CSD major GPA, last-60 GPA, upper division GPA, science GPA, and prerequisite GPA before you apply. Official verification can still differ if transcript classification changes.

CSDCAS Grade Conversion Scale

CSDCAS uses a standardized 4.0 grade scale for SLP and audiology applications, and WF is treated the same as F at 0.00.

CSDCAS GPA Types Explained

Overall GPA

Includes all graded coursework from all institutions after credit standardization to semester hours. This is the main cumulative CSDCAS GPA most applicants check first.

Cumulative Undergraduate GPA

Includes undergraduate and post-bacc coursework while excluding graduate work. This helps programs isolate your pre-admission academic base.

CSD Major GPA

Includes Communication Sciences and Disorders coursework like phonetics, language development, speech science, audiology, articulation, and related major classes. This is often the most important CSDCAS GPA for SLP, Au.D., and other communication disorders admissions.

Last 60 GPA

Includes only the courses you mark as your most recent 60 semester hours. This is very important for SLP and audiology admissions because it highlights recent academic performance.

Upper Division GPA

Includes upper division, post-bacc, and graduate coursework. This helps programs assess performance in advanced CSD and prerequisite work.

Lower Division GPA

Includes lower division coursework, which often covers general education and early prerequisites before upper-level CSD classes begin.

Science GPA

Includes Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, and Other Science coursework. This helps show your science foundation for anatomy, hearing science, and related prerequisites.

Prerequisite GPA

Includes only the courses you flag as program prerequisites, such as psychology, linguistics, statistics, biology, and major CSD requirements.

How CSDCAS Calculates GPA

1The Formula

CSDCAS GPA = Ξ£ (Semester-Standardized Credits Γ— Grade Points)

Ξ£ Semester-Standardized Credits

Quarter-hour classes are first converted into semester hours, then quality points are calculated and averaged across each CSDCAS GPA bucket using the standardized semester-based method applied by Liaison International across all institutions attended.

2Key CSDCAS Rules

  • β€’All attempts count, including repeated courses.
  • β€’All institutions count, not just your current school.
  • β€’Quarter hours are converted into semester hours using 0.667 before GPA is computed.
  • β€’Non-graded credits are excluded, including pass/fail or credit/no-credit work without a standard letter grade.
  • β€’WF is treated as F, while a regular W is not included in GPA.
  • β€’Upward trend matters, because programs often look closely at upper division and last-60 performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about calculating GPA at CSDCAS

Most speech-language pathology and audiology programs pay close attention to the overall GPA, CSD major GPA, last-60 GPA, and upper division GPA, while science GPA and prerequisite GPA can also matter. Those views help programs judge both your communication sciences preparation and your recent academic performance.
