Calculating GPA
First, calculate the total grade points earned.
Example:
- A letter grade of A in ENGL 1301: 4 points x 3 semester hours = 12 grade points
- A letter grade of B in BIOL 1401: 3 points x 4 semester hours = 12 grade points
The GPA (grade point average) = total grade points / total hours attempted.
Example:
- 24 total grade points/7 semester hours = 3.4 GPA
Change of Grade
You may petition for a grade change within 30 days after the first class day of the next regular semester.
To request a change of grade, contact your instructor. If the instructor isn't available, contact the department chair.
