These calculators rely on information that you provide and are merely a tool meant for your personal use.
This script is intended to help you calculate your semester/term GPA. An Adjusted GPA Calculator is also included at the bottom of this page, to compute GPAs when courses are repeated.
GPA operates on a 4-point system, where the number of grade points is divided by the number of hours attempted (less hours in which a grade of S, U, CR, NC, FAN, P, or IP is issued). Grade points are counted as follows:
| Grade Scale | |
| A=4 | |
| B=3 | |
| C=2 | |
| D=1 | |
| F(FA)=0 | |
Note: If you repeat a course you must use the Adjusted GPA (AGPA) Calculator at the bottom of the page to compute your GPA. See the AGPA instructions for directions.
Note: If you repeat a course include its original grade and credit hours information when using the Cumulative GPA Calculator, but don'tinclude additional grade information from when you repeated it. Use the AGPA Calculator below to adjust your GPA to remove the initial grade.
Note: NaN or not-a-number, is an error message indicating that a letter has been inserted in a number field.
This calculator will tell you what GPA you will need for your next semester, year, etc. to reach a GPA goal. You just need to know your current GPA and the number of credit hours you've already completed. Then choose a target GPA and a number of credit hours in which to attain that target!
The Adjusted GPA (AGPA) Calculator below, will allow you to compute the effect of retaking a course with the new grade replacing the original one. Before deciding to repeat a course, please review the University's Grade Adjustment/Course Repeat Policy.
Note: If you retake a course, include the original grade information in the Cumulative GPA Calculator above, but don't include additional grade information from when you repeated it. The AGPA Calculator adjusts your GPA to remove the initial grade. Note: The AGPA Calculator can be used for only one repeated course at a time. To compute your AGPA for multiple course (maximum of three), see Computing AGPA for Multiple Courses.
