Grades and Honors

Information and Grading Table

How to Figure Your Grade Point Average (GPA):

1.  First, multiply the number of credits each course is worth by the point value for the letter grade earned in that course. This calculation will give you the grade points for each course.

• A = 4 points per credit
• B = 3 points per credit
• C = 2 points per credit
• D = 1 point per credit
• IC and F = 0 points

2.  Next, total the grade points of all courses for that semester and divide it by the number of credit hours attempted.

3.  The result is your GPA.
