How to calculate your GPA
Your Grade Point Average or GPA is calculated using the following formula: where G = the result in a course U = the unit value of that course Σ = the sum of For example; if you have results of 4, 5, 5, and 7 in courses with unit values of 2, 2, 1 and 1 respectively, your GPA would be calculated thus: (4x2) + (5x2) + (5x1) + (7x1) 2 + 2 + 1 + 1 = 30÷6 = 5.0
If a student is enrolled in a course but gets no result, G = 0. The General Award Rules (Part 1A Assessment, Division 5 (Results) Section 1A.19: Calculation of grades) explain how to calculate a GPA in a pass/fail course where grades of P or N are used. You will find a link to the General Award Rules on the University Rules page. |
