To calculate GPA, each grade is assigned the following Quality Point Value (QPV): A=4, B=3, C=2, D=1, F=0. Current semester GPA is calculated as follows:
- Multiply the number of attempted credits for each course by the QPV of the grade received for that course (see above). Add all QPVs together.
- Add the total number of Attempted Credits excluding grades of NA, W or AU.
- Divide the total number of Quality Point Values by the total number of Attempted Credits to get the semester GPA.
Example:
Course | Attempted Credits | Grade | QPV | Multiply attempted credits by QPV |
---|---|---|---|---|
ENGL 101 | 3 | B | 3 | 9 |
HIST 103 | 3 | A | 4 | 12 |
Total | 6 | 21 |
Divide total Quality Point Values (21) by the total number of Attempted Credits (6): 21 รท 6 = 3.5 (GPA).
