University of West Florida (UWF) GPA Calculator

Student teaching, practica, and other special courses are graded Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory (S/U); an S is equivalent to a C average or better. With academic-advisor approval, undergraduates may take selected courses Pass/Fail, up to a limit of six semester hours or two courses (whichever is greater) per degree; the Pass/Fail option cannot be used for University- or department-required courses, and a failed Pass/Fail course still counts toward that limit and is computed in the GPA.

For undergraduate first-time-in-college students entering Fall 2022 or later, a D or F grade in a General Education course taken within one year of first enrollment is replaced with a No Credit (NC) grade, applied a maximum of four times. NC grades are not calculated in GPA but count as attempted hours; they are not applied to repeated courses or where the student was found responsible for academic misconduct.

GPA is the total quality points (grade points multiplied by course semester-hour credits) divided by the total semester hours for which letter grades were received. Any academic requirement stated as a "C average or better" is interpreted as a 2.0 average or better.

The institutional cumulative (UWF) GPA — the GPA used for degree completion and conferral — sums all UWF quality points earned and divides by all UWF hours attempted, excluding hours graded CR, G, I, I*, NC, P, S, TR, AW, W, WR, X, XX, or *, and hours forgiven under the grade-forgiveness policy. Grades from other institutions are never averaged into this GPA.

Replacing a D or F with an NC grade (see Grading System) does not exempt a student from Academic Standing actions. Determinations of academic standing under UWF/REG-3.008 are based on the student's original letter grade, not the substituted NC grade.
