Grade point averages (GPA) are calculated by dividing the total number of grade points obtained (credit hours x grade point weight) by the number of credit hours attempted during the period in question in the program. Grade point averages are shown to one decimal place.

What is Assessment GPA?

For all students, the assessment GPA is calculated at the end of the assessment period, May - April, provided that 24 credit hours or more have been attempted in the program since the last assessment in that program. All work attempted toward the current program of study (including the no degree program) is included in the assessment with the exception of courses designated with the “W”, “#” or “X” notation.

What is Cumulative GPA?

Cumulative GPA (CGPA) is based on all work taken toward a degree program. The cumulative grade point average is used to determine the student’s divisional standing at graduation.

For the purpose of awarding scholarships, a Scholarship GPA is calculated at the end of the assessment year (May to April) provided that 24 credit hours or more have been attempted, regardless of program. For students involved in work placement programs such as Co-op or PEP, the scholarship average is calculated using the Dean’s List criteria.
