Grade Point Average

How to Calculate your GPA

In determining grade point averages the following computation is used:

Grade Quality Points
A 4
B 3
C 2
D 1
F, FTC, FX 0

The current semester grade point average is computed by following three steps. First, find the sum of the quality points obtained by multiply the hours assigned to each course by the quality points assigned to the grade earned in the course. Second, find the total number of quality hours by adding the total number of hours for all courses taken during the semester. Third, divide the total number of quality points by the total number of quality hours. For example:

4 credit (quality) hours of A (4 points) = 16 quality points
4 credit (quality) hours of B (3 points) = 12 quality points
3 credit (quality) hours of C (2 points) = 06 quality points
3 credit (quality) hours of D (1 point) = 03 quality points
2 credit (quality) hours of F (0 points) = 00 quality points
16 total credit (quality) hours=37 quality points

Current semester grade point average=2.31

The student's grade point average for this semester, 2.31, is the result of dividing 37 by 16. The student's cumulative grade point average is found by dividing the total quality points earned in all courses completed at Coppin by the total number of quality hours at Coppin. Quality hours are associated only with courses that earn graduation credit.
