How to calculate Point-Hour Ratio?

Point-Hour Ratio (Grade Point Average GPA) is calculated using the following steps:

  • Each course is assigned a specific number of credit hours. Multiply the credit hours for a course with the point value of the grade earned for that course. The result is the credit points earned for that course.
    Credit Points = Credit Hours x Grade Point Value
  • Divide the total number of credit points earned in a group of courses by the total number of credit hours attempted in those courses. The answer (a number ranging from 0 to 4) is your Point-Hour Ratio (PHR).
    Point-Hour Ratio (PHR) = Total Credit Points / Total Hours Attempted.

Semester Point-Hour Ratio / Semester GPA is calculated for all courses taken in a semester.

Cumulative Point-Hour Ratio (CPHR) / Cumulative GPA is calculated for all courses taken to the present date.
