How Paris Junior College Calculates GPA
Grades of "W" (withdrew) and "X" (incomplete) are not included in the computation of cumulative grade point averages. An "X" not completed by the end of the next long semester is changed to an "F."
A grade may be raised only by repeating the course at PJC and earning a higher grade; only the grade and credits from the highest attempt are used in computing the GPA and applied toward degree or program requirements.

Does every program at Paris Junior College use this same grading scale?
No. This calculator uses PJC's Standard Academic Grade Scale, which applies to general coursework. Two other tracks use different percentage bands mapped to the same 4.0-point scale: the Health Occupations Didactic Grade Scale (for Health Occupations programs under licensing, regulatory, or program-specific accreditation standards) and a Pass/Fail Developmental and Non-Credit Grading Scale (for developmental and non-credit coursework). Check your course syllabus or the current PJC catalog to confirm which scale applies to a specific course.
