Grade Points
Grade points represent the translation of letter grades into numerical values.
Grade Values
The grades that have value are:
A — 4.0 grade points for 1 credit
B — 3.0 grade points for 1 credit
C — 2.0 grade points for 1 credit
D — 1.0 grade points for 1 credit
F — 0.0 grade points for 1 credit
Semester GPA
The semester GPA is the result of dividing the semester grade point total by the number of semester hours attempted (excluding any Incompletes, Withdrawals and Audits). An example of how to compute the grade point average is provided below.
| Course Name | Credits | Grade Points |
|---|---|---|
| ENGL 1301 | 3 | C — 3 credits X 2 points = 6 |
| BIOL 1406 | 4 | B — 4 credits X 3 points = 12 |
| PSYC 2301 | 3 | F — 3 credits X 0 points = 0 |
| MATH 0302 | 3 | A — 3 credits X 4 points = 12 |
| PHED 1102 | 1 | A — 1 credit X 4 points = 4 |
| 14 credits attempted | 34 points earned |
34/14= 2.43 GPA
Cumulative GPA
| Course Name | Credits | Grade Points |
|---|---|---|
| ENGL 1301 | 3 | C — 3 credits X 2 points = 6 |
| BIOL 1406 | 4 | B — 4 credits X 3 points = 12 |
| PSYC 2301 | 3 | F — 3 credits X 0 points = 0 |
| MATH 0302 | (3)* | A |
| PHED 1102 | 1 | A — 1 credit X 4 points = 4 |
| 11 credits attempted | 22 points earned |
22/11= 2.0 GPA
Developmental Courses
*Since no grade points or hours are given for Incompletes, Withdrawals, Audits, or developmental work, the credits for MATH 0302 are not used in computing the cumulative GPA. Grades for developmental course work are only used for calculating the semester’s GPA. The semester GPA is used to determine Probation and Suspension status.
