Solano Community College (SCC) GPA Calculator

Grades of P, NP, CR, NC, Incomplete (I), and Withdrawal (W) are not incorporated into GPA calculations; only courses graded A, B, C, D, or F count toward GPA.

Under the Pass/No Pass option, a P corresponds to a letter grade of A, B, or C and an NP to a D or F; students are limited to 15 semester units under this option, and a letter grade cannot be changed to Pass/No Pass or vice versa unless the course is repeated. A course in which NP was earned may be repeated once for a P or letter grade.

An Incomplete (I) may be assigned only for illness or severe personal problems that prevent completing a final exam, project, or term paper, under an “Incomplete Grade Contract” that must be resolved within one calendar year; students may not re-enroll in a course while holding an Incomplete in it.

A course may generally be repeated to improve a grade of D, F, or NC, with the later grade then used in the GPA (except for impacted-program courses). A course passed with a “C” or better may be repeated only for extenuating circumstances with Academic Council approval, and in that case the repeated grade is excluded from the GPA calculation.

Students who fail to maintain satisfactory academic standing are placed on academic probation, and if they do not improve, on academic dismissal, which bars enrollment in future semesters and requires a counseling intervention.

Academic probation is assigned when a student has attempted at least 12 semester units and has a semester or cumulative GPA below 2.0, or is readmitted after academic dismissal; it is removed once cumulative GPA reaches 2.0 or higher.

Academic dismissal follows when, while on probation, cumulative GPA remains below 2.0 for three consecutive semesters, or 50% or more of transcript entries are W, I, or NC for three consecutive semesters. It is lifted once cumulative GPA reaches 2.0 or W/I/NC entries fall below 50% of attempted units, or after a semester GPA of 2.25+ following readmission (which keeps the student on probation until cumulative GPA reaches 2.0).

Progress probation applies when a student enrolled in at least 12 semester units receives W, I, or NC entries for 50% or more of those units, and is removed once that share falls below 50%.

President's Honor List: awarded each semester to students with a GPA of 3.85 or higher and at least 39 grade points in not fewer than 12 completed units.

Dean's Honor List: awarded each semester to students with a GPA of 3.25 or higher and at least 39 grade points in not fewer than 12 completed units.

Alpha Gamma Sigma (California Community College Honor Society) recognizes students with a high GPA across all college work; permanent membership may be awarded at graduation.

Phi Theta Kappa (Beta Mu Gamma Chapter) requires 12 completed semester hours of associate-degree coursework with a cumulative GPA of 3.5, maintained at 3.25 or higher to remain in good standing.

Honors at graduation: a cumulative GPA of 3.50–3.74 earns Honors, and 3.75 or above earns High Honors.
