GPA and cGPA Calculations

The grade point average (GPA) for each quarter and cumulative grade point average (cGPA) are calculated based on courses taken in residence at the University. The GPA for each quarter is calculated by dividing the points earned that quarter by the total cumulative credits attempted for the GPA. The cGPA is calculated by dividing the total cumulative points earned by the total cumulative credits attempted for the GPA.

The number of points awarded for each course is determined by multiplying the points listed for each letter grade by the number of credits of the course. For example, a grade of A in a four-credit course earns 4 (credits) x 4.0 (points) for a total of 16.0 points and a grade of C in a three-credit course earns 3 (credits) x 2.0 (points) for a total of 6.0 points.
