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 Hours | Grade Points |
Attempted |
|
Grade | |
Earned |
5 | x | 3.0 | = | 15.0 |
3 | x | 4.0 | = | 12.0 |
4 | x | 2.0 | = | 8.0 |
5 | x | 1.0 | = | 5.0 |
1 | x | 0.0 | = | 0.0 |
18 | | 40.0 |
Dividing 40.0 by 18 computes to a grade-point average of 2.22.
