How it works

Enter each college course with its letter grade and credit hours (usually 1–5, often 3 or 4).
A 4-credit lab counts more than a 1-credit seminar — that is the college-specific piece.
Pass/fail and audited courses stay out; only letter-graded credits enter the GPA.

Formula

College semester GPA = Σ(GPA points × credit hours) ÷ letter-graded credit hours

Example: A 4-credit A (16 QP) plus a 3-credit B+ (9.9 QP) → 25.9 ÷ 7 ≈ 3.70. The lab pulls the average up more than a 3-credit B+ would alone. Letter cut-offs use the unrounded result.
