Coastline College GPA Calculator

Your GPA is calculated by dividing the total number of grade points earned by the total number of units attempted for grades of A, B, C, D, or F. Pass (P) and No Pass (NP) grades carry no grade points and do not affect your GPA.

"NP," "W," and "I" grades are used in determining academic probation and disqualification, under separate college regulations governing Probation/Disqualification.

An instructor's grade determination is final absent mistake, fraud, bad faith, or incompetence. A student who believes a final grade is incorrect may file a Grade Challenge Petition with the Office of Admissions and Records within two years after the end of the semester the grade was assigned.

A grade of "Pass" is treated as equivalent to a "C" for transfer purposes. Some four-year universities require courses for a major, or for general education breadth, to be completed on a standard graded ("A" through "F") basis rather than Pass/No Pass, and some limit how many pass-basis units count toward a bachelor's degree.

Students who must complete 60 units with a 2.4 GPA before transferring to a University of California campus (e.g., UC Irvine) need at least 42 of those units on a graded basis. Courses taken to remedy a UC admissions deficiency from incomplete high school preparation are not accepted if completed Pass/No Pass.
