Calculating Your Grade Point Average

Add the hours you have attempted for a grade in the semester. Then figure the point value of your grades by multiplying the point value of the grade by the number of hours in the course. Divide the number of points by the number of hours; this is your term GPA.

48.2 divided by 16 = 3.01 GPA

To figure your cumulative GPA, divide total points for all terms by the total number of credit hours you attempted for a grade. Grade point averages are truncated to the second decimal place.

Warning: Nationwide studies have shown that credit/no-credit grades on your academic record may be a negative factor in evaluation of your application for admission or employment by most professional schools (law, medicine, etc.), by many graduate schools, and by some employers and undergraduate schools. Before enrolling for courses on a credit/no-credit basis consider what effect it may have upon your career goals.

Additional credit/no-credit information may be found in the Policy Library.
