GPA Calculator

Quality points are earned with each final course grade. Using the following formula, these are then averaged against the total number of credit hours that the student has completed. This is done on the following formula:

A = 4 Grade Quality Points

B = 3 Grade Quality Points

C = 2 Grade Quality Points

D = 1 Grade Quality Points

F or FIW = 0 Grade Quality Points

W = N/A

To compute a grade-point average, the number of quality points for a single grade is multiplied by the number of credit hours given for completion of the course. The total number of quality points is then divided by the total number of credit hours on record.
