How GPA Is Calculated
Grade point average (GPA) is computed by dividing the total number of quality points earned by the total number of hours attempted.
An Incomplete (I) not finished by the end of the following semester converts to an F or a U, depending on the grading method of the course. Courses taken for Satisfactory (S) or Unsatisfactory (U) graded credit will not convert to any other type of grade.
