How GPA Is Calculated
GPA is computed on Alfaisal University's 4-point scale. Grades that carry a printed grade-point value count toward GPA; grades such as W, WP, P, NP, AU, I, CR, R, CC, S/U, and NC may appear on a transcript but are not counted in the GPA calculation.
The grades "D+" and "D" are not applicable at the higher diploma, master's, and PhD levels.
