FAQs

How is cumulative GPA calculated?

Cumulative GPA is calculated by adding total quality points from all semesters and dividing by total credit hours attempted. The formula is: Cumulative GPA = (Previous Quality Points + Current Quality Points) / (Previous Credits + Current Credits).

What GPA do I need this semester to reach my target?

The predictor calculates: Required Semester GPA = (Target Cumulative GPA × Total Credits - Previous Quality Points) / Current Credits. If the result exceeds 4.0, the target is not achievable this semester.
