How Your GPA Is Calculated

Your GPA is calculated by dividing your total quality points by the number of hours attempted at Elon only.

Repeated Courses and Pass/Fail Options

Courses repeated within four semesters of attendance (excluding winter and summer sessions) following the first enrollment in the course count only once in computing the cumulative grade point average, with the most recent grade counted rather than any previous grade received. A course repeated more than once counts in the cumulative grade point average each time it is repeated.

A student may take up to two courses outside their major, minor, and Elon Core curriculum requirements on a pass/fail basis. Study abroad and Study USA courses may not be taken pass/fail, and the decision to take a course pass/fail must be made on or before the last day of drop/add.
