Frequently asked questions
How is GPA calculated?
Each grade is converted to grade points (A = 4.0, B = 3.0 and so on), multiplied by the course credits, added up, and divided by the total number of credits.
What is a good GPA?
A 3.0 (B average) is generally considered good, 3.5 and above is very good, and many scholarships and graduate programmes look for 3.0–3.5 or higher.
Do pass/fail courses count?
Usually not. Pass/fail courses earn credit but are not included in your GPA, so leave them out of the calculation.
