Grade Point Average
Two grade point averages are maintained by the University: (1) a semester average based on courses taken during a particular term, and (2) a cumulative average based on all college level work recorded on the transcript.
A student's grade point average (GPA) is computed by dividing the number of grade points by the number of credit hours attempted.
Grade Reports
Mid-term and final grade reports are available to students and advisors through the student portal. Students should check their grade reports carefully. If a student believes any part of the report is incorrect, the corrections must be made within 3 months, unless subject to the Academic Appeals Procedure. Only the end-of-semester grades are recorded on the permanent record.
