Each grade earned in a course carries a specified number of grade points; the grade points earned in a course equal the grade point value of the grade multiplied by the number of semester hours credited. GPA is found by dividing total grade points earned by the total semester hours credited in courses for which grade points have been assigned. Credits transferred from another university are not included when calculating the GPA, and the official Marquette GPA is not rounded up or down for any reason.
WF is calculated into the grade point average the same as F. Grades that carry no grade points and are excluded from the GPA include ADW, AU, AUA, CR, I, IC, IE, NC, NG, NPF, PD, PS, S, SY, U, UW, UY, W and WA.
