How it is calculated
GPA = sum of (grade points × course hours) ÷ total hours. Points: A+ = 5, A = 4.75, B+ = 4.5, B = 4, C+ = 3.5, C = 3, D+ = 2.5, D = 2, F = 1.
Example
Result: Semester GPA: 4.4 of 5; Overall rating: Very good; Total hours: 15.
Limits and caveats
- A few universities use slightly different points or rating bands, so check your own regulations.
- Leave out withdrawn courses and any course that does not count toward the GPA.
