How do I calculate my GPA?

Miscellaneous

First, calculate grade points by multiplying the value (V) of an assigned grade by the unit value (UV) of the course (grade points = V x UV). The grade point average (GPA) requires two sums: the sum of all the grade points earned for the term you are calculating (quarter points [QPTS]) and the sum of all the letter-graded units attempted during the term (quarter hours [QHRS]). To determine the GPA, divide the quarter points by the quarter hours (GPA= QPTS/ QHRS).
