Warning status is earned if a PSHS scholar obtains a grade of 2.75 on a single subject before the last quarter. Failing grade is 2.75 instead of the usual 3.0. A student can only be kicked out (through academic means) if he/she attains a grade of 2.75 and below in one-third the total number of units for that year, a 5.0 in at least one subject, or has a GWA below 2.50.

Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Maynila also employ a specific grading category for retention. This system uses the General Weighted Average (GWA) per semester as a basis whether or not a particular student shall be retained at the course or college he or she is enrolled to. Some colleges have higher GWA requirement for retention, but most of them demands a GWA of at least 2.50 per semester. A few graduate schools, on the other hand, employ the Pass or Fail system.
