How to Calculate Your GPA
\n
Your Grade Point Average (GPA) is a numerical representation of your academic performance. It is calculated by dividing the total number of quality points you have earned by the total number of credit hours you have attempted. Quality points are calculated by multiplying the credit hours for each course by the grade points you received in that course. For example, if you earn an A (4.0 grade points) in a 3-credit hour course, you have earned 12 quality points (3 credit hours × 4.0 grade points = 12 quality points).
\n
To calculate your cumulative GPA, you need to add up the quality points from all your courses and divide by the total number of credit hours from all your courses. For example, if you have earned 36 quality points in 12 credit hours, your GPA is 3.0 (36 quality points ÷ 12 credit hours = 3.0 GPA).
