Calculating a Grade Point Average

Academic average is determined by dividing the total number of quality points earned by the total number of credits taken, whether passed or failed. The following table is an illustration of this computation:

For example, each grade is assigned quality points. F=0, D=4, C=6, B=9, and A=12.

In addition, each grade is assigned a numberical value (aside form the qality points). F=0, D=1, C=2, B=3, A=4. If the institution has a plus system then (for example) B+=3.5, C+= 2.5 etc. Below is an example of one semesters GPA.

HIS 101. . . . 3 (credits) . . . . C(numerical value of 2) . . . . . . . .6 (quality points)

PSY 101 . . . 3 . . . . B(3) . . . . . . . .9

BIO 111 . . . 4 . . . . D(1) . . . . . . . .4

FRE 101 . . . 3 . . . . A(4) . . . . . . .12

ENG 101. . . 3 . . . B+(3.5) . . . .10.5

CIS 101. . . . 3 . . . . C (6) . . . . . . . 3

Total credits taken: 19

Total quality points earned 41.5

41.5 divided by 19 results is a 2.18 grade point average

The above was based on one semester. You can also calculate using the same procedure for the cumulative overall GPA.
