Grade Point Average (GPA)

Grade point averages are calculated by dividing grade points earned by the credit hours attempted. The following is an example of a grade-point average computation:

Credit HoursGrade Points
Attempted   Grade  Earned
 5x3.0=15.0
 3x4.0=12.0
 4x2.0= 8.0
 5x1.0=5.0
1x0.0=0.0
18 40.0

Dividing 40.0 by 18 computes to a grade-point average of 2.22.
