• The GPA is equal to the number of Quality Points (QP) divided by the number of Credit Hours (CH).
• Credit Hours (CH) = total number of hours for courses student received a grade of A, B, C, D or E (including + and - grades)
• Quality Points (QP) = number of credit hours per course multiplied by the value of the grade received. Example values: A=4, B=3, C=2, D=1, E=0
• Courses with grades of AUD, CR, I, IP, NC, PN, S, SC, U, UN, W, or 2YR do not figure in GPA calculations.
