Grade Point Average:

Grade points measure the level of achievement for the credit hours completed. To calculate the GPA, multiply the number of grade points by the number of credit hours received for each course. Total the number of credits and the number of grade points separately. Divide the total grade points by the total credits.

A = 4 grade points

B = 3 grade points

C = 2 grade points

D = 1 grade point

F = 0 grade points
