Grade Point Requirements & 平均绩点 Calculation
Grade Points Formula
| Letter Grade (Numerical equivalent) | X | 号. Hours 信贷 | = | Grade Points |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3.0 | X | 3 | = | 9 |
平均绩点 Formula
| Total Grade Points | ÷ | Total credit hours attempted | = | 平均绩点 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 45 | ÷ | 15 | = | 3.0 |
