How GPA Is Calculated
Grade point average is calculated by dividing the total grade points earned by the total number of semester hours for which grades of A, B, C, D, or F are assigned. Grades of W (withdrawal), I (incomplete), and AU (audit) do not affect the GPA. Grades of S and U, used for co-op, practicums, and training for Business and Industry, are not included in the GPA calculation.
An Incomplete (I) grade must be resolved by the end of the following term or it is automatically converted to an F.
Some programs and/or courses may require a higher numeric grading range than the standard scale.
