How Cumulative GPA Is Calculated
Your cumulative GPA is a credit-weighted average, not a simple arithmetic mean of your semester numbers. It is derived using the standard formula:
Example:
If you take a 4-credit course and earn an A (4.0), that course generates quality points. If you also take a 3-credit course and earn a B (3.0), that course generates quality points.
