Frequently Asked Questions
How is GPA calculated on a 4.0 scale?▾
GPA is calculated by multiplying each course grade point value by its credit hours, summing all grade points, and dividing by total credit hours. On a standard 4.0 scale, an A equals 4.0, B equals 3.0, C equals 2.0, D equals 1.0, and F equals 0.0.
What is the difference between weighted and unweighted GPA?▾
An unweighted GPA uses a standard 4.0 scale where A+ and A both equal 4.0. A weighted GPA gives A+ a value of 4.3, allowing GPAs above 4.0 for students earning top marks in their courses.
How do I calculate my cumulative GPA?▾
Enter your current cumulative GPA and total credits earned, then add your new semester courses. The calculator combines your previous grade points with the new ones to compute your updated cumulative GPA.
What GPA do I need for Latin honors (Cum Laude)?▾
