Frequently Asked Questions

How is GPA calculated?
GPA = Total Quality Points ÷ Total Credit Hours. Quality Points = Grade Points × Credit Hours per course. For example: an A (4.0) in a 3-credit course = 12 quality points.
What is a weighted GPA (5.0 scale)?
Weighted GPA gives extra points for harder courses like AP, IB, or Honors. An A in a regular course = 4.0, while an A in an AP course = 5.0 on the weighted scale.
What GPA is needed for honor roll?
Requirements vary by institution. Typically: Dean's List ≥ 3.5, Magna Cum Laude ≥ 3.7, Summa Cum Laude ≥ 3.9, Latin Honors (Honor Roll) ≥ 3.5 on a 4.0 scale.
