Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) GPA Calculator

FIT's grade point average is a semester index. Each course's grade point value is multiplied by its credit hours to produce quality points; quality points are summed and divided by total credit hours to produce the GPA.

A course may be repeated only if the original grade was F, WA, WD, IF, WF, or ZF. If a course is repeated, only the last grade earned is included in the GPA, though the original F or WF grade permanently remains on the transcript. A third and final attempt at a course requires department chair approval. Internship (IC) courses are an exception: they may be taken a maximum of two times per degree program, with only the first counting toward degree requirements.

A student is placed on academic probation if their semester GPA falls below 2.0, and is limited to 15 credits the following semester. A student is not subject to dismissal after their first semester in a degree program, but is dismissed after two consecutive semesters with both a semester GPA and a cumulative GPA below 2.0. A nondegree student is dismissed upon completing 12 credits with a cumulative GPA below 2.0, with no option to appeal. Students academically dismissed for two or more years, with a cumulative GPA below 2.0 while previously enrolled, may apply for readmission under FIT's Academic Forgiveness Policy.

Transfer credit is reviewed and posted by the Office of the Registrar in coordination with Admissions and academic department chairs and deans. A grade of T is entered for awarded transfer credit and is not calculated into the GPA.
