The semester GPA is calculated by multiplying each grade's quality points by the number of credits for which it was earned, adding the resulting quality points for the semester, and dividing by the total number of credits attempted that semester. The cumulative GPA follows the same method across all courses taken to date, divided by the total credits for which grades were earned.
Quality points and quality hours are assigned for every credit attempted except courses taken on a Pass/Fail basis and those graded W (Withdrawal) or I (Incomplete). Grades of W, P (Passing), NC (No Credit), and AUD (Audit) are not counted toward the GPA. An Unofficial Withdrawal (UW) — recorded when a student stops attending a course without completing an official withdrawal — is treated as equivalent to an F for GPA purposes.
