Grade Point Average

Grade point average is a calculated average based on grades and credit earned per class. The grade points earned by the letter grade in each class are multiplied by the credit value of the same class. The point values from each class are then added together and divided by the total number of credits. The resulting number (a value between 0.0-4.0) is the student’s GPA. Pass or fail classes are not calculated in GPA. You can use a GPA calculator here to make estimates of your GPA for the current grading period.

*** Disclaimer: Each university has it’s own way of calculating the GPA. ***
