Grade point average

At the end of each semester, a scholarship index grade point average (GPA) is computed for each student.

• A = 4.00 quality points for each credit

• A- = 3.67 quality points for each credit

• B+ = 3.33 quality points for each credit

• B = 3.00 quality points for each credit

• B- = 2.67 quality points for each credit

• C+ = 2.33 quality points for each credit

• C = 2.00 quality points for each credit

• C- = 1.67 quality points for each credit

• D+ = 1.33 quality points for each credit

• D = 1.00 quality points for each credit

• F = 0.00 quality points for each credit

• HF (HONOR CODE VIOLATION) = 0.00 quality points.

Thus, a grade of A in a three-credit course would be assigned 12 quality points.

The GPA is determined by dividing the total number of earned quality points by the total number of credit hours towards the GPA. Grades of AU, I and W are excluded from the calculations. Other symbols in use (not included in computation of average):

• W Officially Withdrawn from the Course

• AU Audit

• I Incomplete

• P Pass

• NP Not Passed

• T Transfer credit from another institution

• PC Credit for Prior Learning and Experience

• CC Credit for externally recognized credentials

Grade Scale

• A = 93 – 100

• A- = 90 – 92

• B+ = 87 – 89

• B = 83 – 86

• B- = 80 – 82

• C+ = 77 – 79

• C = 73 – 76

• C- = 70 – 72

• D+ = 67 – 69

• D = 60 – 66

• F = 0 - 59

Note: The student’s final grade average is rounded to the nearest percent before grades are determined.
