OK that makes more sense to me. That is different than the grading scale than I'm used to. (In most grading systems the difference between an A and a C- is more than 1 point)

A....3.8
A-...?
B+..?
B....3.4
B-...3.2
C+..?
C....?
C-...2.8
D+..?
D....?
D-...?
F.....0

Our requirement is similar to a lot of other teams at our school. The student must maintain a C average with no F in any class. If they fall below that requirement they are put on "probation" until they get that grade back up.
