The grade points for a course are found by multiplying the number of credits awarded for the course times the appropriate grade points. For this and other grade calculations, Pass (P), No Pass (NP), (LP) Low Pass, Honors (H), Incomplete (I), Work-in-Progress (WIP) or No Grade Reported (NGR) entries do not count and should not be used.For example, a 4-credit class graded C-:
4 times 1.67 = 6.68 grade points
Add up the graded credits for each course, then add up the grade points for each course and divide. For example:
Credits | Grade | Grade points |
3.0 | A- | 11.01 |
3.0 | C | 6.00 |
4.0 | B+ | 13.32 |
3.0 | B | 9.00 |
1.0 | F | 0.00 |
14.0 | 39.33 |
The grade-point average, rounded to three decimal places, of these courses is
39.33 divided by 14 = 2.809
