How grading works at Howard College

Howard College grades on a flat 4.0 scale with no plus or minus modifiers: A (4), B (3), C (2), D (1), and F (0) grade points per semester credit hour.

Howard College also awards an FX grade (Failure, Excessive Absences), worth 0 grade points — treated exactly the same as F for grade point average, probation, suspension, and satisfactory academic progress purposes. FX is assigned when a student registered and paid for a course but failed it due to excessive absences.

How your GPA is calculated at Howard College

Your grade point average is your total grade points divided by your total hours attempted. A course counts as "attempted" if you register for it and receive any grade other than W (Withdrawal of Student).

Some grades carry no grade points and are not used in this calculation: P (Pass, for credit-by-examination), I (Incomplete, until it is resolved), AU (Audit), NC (Non-Credit), and X (Course in Progress).

An Incomplete (I) not resolved by the end of the next long semester automatically becomes an F.

If you repeat a course you've already received credit for, your higher grade becomes the grade of record used to determine your eligibility to graduate — but the lower grade and its hours remain on your transcript indefinitely.

Frequently asked questions

Can I save my semesters and track my CGPA at Howard College?
Yes. After you calculate a semester's GPA, click "Save as semester" to add it to the built-in CGPA tracker, which then computes your cumulative GPA across every saved semester using the standard weighted formula (Σ SGPA × credits ÷ Σ credits). You can save semesters by course (full breakdown) or quick-add a past semester with just the SGPA and credit hours. Locking, renaming, and deleting saved semesters are all supported, and the tracker shows a running CGPA plus a trend arrow versus your previous semester.
How do I convert SGPA to CGPA at Howard College?
Your CGPA is the credit-weighted average of every semester's SGPA. The formula is: CGPA = (SGPA₁ × credits₁ + SGPA₂ × credits₂ + … + SGPAₙ × creditsₙ) ÷ (credits₁ + credits₂ + … + creditsₙ). On this page, add each semester to the CGPA tracker (either by course or as a quick SGPA + credit-hours entry) and the calculator runs the conversion for you on every save, edit, and delete — no manual arithmetic required.
Can I add past semester GPAs without entering every course?
Yes. On the My CGPA Tracker tab, click "Add semester" and choose the quick-add option. You enter just the SGPA and the credit hours for that semester — no course-by-course breakdown required. It works as a GPA calculator with previous semesters support, or as a GPA calculator without course details when you only remember the SGPA from your transcript. Quick-added and course-by-course semesters can be mixed freely; both contribute to your CGPA using the same credit-weighted formula.
Is my CGPA tracker data sent to your servers?
No. Your saved semesters are stored locally in your browser only — nothing is transmitted to GPAWise. A "Clear all tracker data" button is always available on the tracker tab to wipe the data on demand.
Is this Howard College GPA calculator free?
Yes — GPAWise is completely free to use. There's no signup, no paywall, and your inputs stay in your browser.
Does Howard College use plus/minus grading (A+, A-, B+, etc.)?

No. Howard College's grading table lists only whole-letter grades — A (4), B (3), C (2), D (1), and F (0) — with no plus or minus modifiers.

Does an FX grade affect my GPA at Howard College?

Yes. FX (Failure, Excessive Absences) carries a grade point value of 0, the same as F, and Howard College's FX Grade Policy states it is "treated exactly the same as a grade of 'F' in terms of grade point average, probation, suspension, and satisfactory academic progress."

Do P, I, AU, NC, X, or W grades affect my GPA at Howard College?

No. Grades of Pass (P, for credit-by-examination), Incomplete (I, until resolved), Audit (AU), Non-Credit (NC), Course in Progress (X), and Withdrawal (W) carry no grade points that factor into your grade point average calculation.
