Your Cumulative GPA is:
To calculate just one semester's GPA, start by adding the courses you've completed in the course name input field. Then, add your grade and the course's credit hour. Do this for all the classes you attempted in the semester. As you enter your grades and credit hours, the calculator will calculate your GPA instantly and display the result.
To calculate cumulative GPA, enter one or more semesters by clicking on the Add semester button and repeat the above steps.
Most colleges consider C as the minimum acceptable grade for admission or to grant you credit for the courses you took. In our GPA calculator, we made available all possible grades starting from A+ to F to accommodate every scenario.
Credit hours represent the number of clock hours (or contact hours) you spend attending classroom lectures (or lab) per week. So, if you are taking a 3 credit hour course, that means you will be in classroom 3 times for one hour each week, for one semester. Usually, a 1 credit hour course requires one and half hour additional work outside of the classroom doing homework and studying, etc.
A program is a series of courses you took in college in order to earn an academic credential such as diploma, associate or bachelor's degree. On the other hand, courses are building blocks of a program. A degree program usually made up of 40 courses or 120 credit hours. The total time it takes to complete a typical degree program is 8 semesters or 4 calendar years.
