Minneapolis Community and Technical College GPA Calculator

The default grade method for college-level courses (numbered 1000 or higher) is the standard letter scale of A, B, C, D, or F — Minneapolis College's Policy 3.08 defines a letter grade as exactly one of these five, with no plus or minus variants. Certain courses, such as select internships, use a different grade method. Where a course offers an alternate method, department faculty may petition to add Pass/No Credit (P/NC) as an option; as of Spring Semester 2025 the College no longer offers a Pass/Fail option.

Only the letter grades A, B, C, D, and F are calculated into a student's GPA at Minneapolis College. Grades of P (Pass), NC (No Credit), I (Incomplete), NA (never attended), NW (stopped participating), W (Withdrawal), AU (Audit), and Z (in progress) are all excluded from GPA calculations, though most still count toward attempted-credit measures used for academic and financial aid satisfactory progress. An Honors Option notation (H) accompanies a letter grade without affecting the GPA.

Students who have not registered for courses at the College for at least five consecutive years may petition, after completing 12 college-level credits with a minimum 2.0 GPA, to have their prior grades and credits excluded from their cumulative GPA under Academic Forgiveness. This may be requested only once, applies only to grades earned after 1995, and applies only to the College's own GPA — transfer institutions and selective-admissions programs may choose not to honor it.

A student who completes 9 or more college-level credits in a semester with a semester GPA of 3.0 or greater is placed on the Dean's List. Credits below course number 1000, credits taken Pass/No Credit or for audit, credits from a withdrawn course, and credits currently in incomplete status do not count toward Dean's List eligibility.
