GPA/CGPA and repeat/retake rules
Grade Point Average (GPA) is the weighted average of the Grade Points earned in all courses passed or completed, and a minimum weighted average must be maintained for satisfactory academic progress.
A grade of D (2.00 grade points) is shown on the grade sheet but, per NDUB's own policy, "will not be counted for Grade Point Average (GPA) calculation." Only a grade of C or higher counts as earned credit. A student who earns D in a core course must repeat it; in an optional course, a substitute course may be taken instead if available.
A student who earns an F must repeat the course, and the grade earned on repeating replaces the original F; a course may be repeated at most twice. A student with a grade of B- or below (excluding F) may retake a course once for grade improvement, and the better of the two grades earned counts toward CGPA.

NDUB's own Grading System states that a 'D' grade will not be counted for Grade Point Average (GPA) calculation, even though it is shown on the grade sheet at 2.00 grade points. This calculator, like most GPA tools, includes every entered grade (D included, at 2.00) in the weighted average, which can produce a different figure than NDUB's own computation for a transcript that contains a 'D' grade. A 'D' also does not count as an earned credit — only a grade of C or higher does — so a course graded D must be repeated (or substituted, for an optional course).
