Calculating Your GPA

Grade Points are determined by multiplying the academic credit hours of a course by the quality point value of the grade received (A=4, B=3, C=2, D=1, F=0).

A student’s grade point average is determined by dividing the number of credits attempted into the number of grade points. For example:

Course	Credits	Grade	Grade Points
English I	3	A	3 x 4 = 12
General Psychology	3	C	3 x 2 = 6
Biology I	4	D	4 x 1 = 4
Intermediate Algebra	3	F	3 x 0 = 0
Health Science	3	A	3 x 4 = 12
Physical Fitness	1	B	1 x 3 = 3
	17 Total Credits		37 Total Grade Points

37 Grade Points / 17 Credit Hours = 2.17 Grade Point Average (GPA)
