What is the difference between earned and all credit hours?

A GPA is a students grade point average, calculated on the grades received for each course. There is a semester GPA, and a cumulative (total) GPA. Earned credit hours are the amount of credits completed successfully (D or higher). Just remember a D is a minimum pass and can bring our GPA below a 2.0 (C) average which could lead to dismissal. In addition, D grades will not transfer to other colleges and universities. The GPA is calculated by adding up the total quality points and dividing that number by the number of credits completed. Each grade is assigned a number of quality points. For example, A = 12 quality points, B+ = 10.5, B=9, etc..
