Wilfrid Laurier University  - 2001/2002 Undergraduate Academic Calendar
University Regulations 
A student's progress within a program will be evaluated on the basis of the grade point average (GPA). For purposes of calculation, the grade point (GP) earned in a half-credit course will be given one-half weight of that earned in a full-credit course. Likewise the GP earned in a quarter-credit course will be given one-quarter weight of that earned in a full-credit course.
Letter grades, and their Grade Point equivalents are as follows: 
 
| Letter Grades | Grade Points | 
| A+ | 12 | 
| A | 11 | 
| A- | 10 | 
| B+ | 9 | 
| B | 8 | 
| B- | 7 | 
| C+ | 6 | 
| C | 5 | 
| C- | 4 | 
| D+ | 3 | 
| D | 2 | 
| D- | 1 | 
| F | 0 | 
Where letter grades are derived from percentages, the following conversion will be adopted unless the instructor announces otherwise, in writing, at the outset of a course.
