How GPA is Calculated
Formula: GPA = Total Quality Points ÷ Total Credit Hours
Quality Points = Grade Points × Credit Hours
Example: A 3-credit A (4.0) = 12 quality points. A 4-credit B (3.0) = 12 quality points. Total GPA = 24 ÷ 7 = 3.43
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a good GPA?
A GPA of 3.0 (B average) is considered good. A 3.5+ is excellent and often qualifies for Dean's List. A 3.7+ may qualify for honors at graduation.
How do credit hours affect GPA?
Credit hours weight your grades. A 4-credit course affects your GPA more than a 1-credit course. This means higher grades in high-credit courses boost your GPA more.
What GPA do I need for graduate school?
Most graduate programs require a minimum 3.0 GPA. Competitive programs may require 3.5 or higher. Check specific program requirements.
What's the difference between 4.0 and 4.3 scales?
The 4.0 scale caps A+ at 4.0 (same as A). The 4.3 scale gives A+ a 4.3 value, rewarding extra effort. Many universities use 4.0, but some use 4.3.
Can I raise a low GPA?
Yes! Focus on high-credit courses, retake failed classes if allowed, and consider grade replacement policies. The more credits you take, the more your recent grades can improve your cumulative GPA.
