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.
Grades | Conversion |
