Calculating GPA
To figure your gpa, do the following:
1. For each course, multiply the credit hours of the course by
the points for your grade (a=5, etc.)
2. Add the products.
3. Divide the sum by the total number of hours taken that semester.
A=5 points
B=4 points
C=3 points
D=2 points
F=1 point
Follow this example:
| Course |

Credit hours = |
Grade points |
| Math 120 |
A (5 points) |

| Psych. 100 |
B (4 points) |

Cumulative GPA
To figure your cumulative gpa, add up your credit hours and your
grade points for all semesters. Then divide total grade points
by total credit hours to get your cumulative GPA.
