How the formula works

Tohoku Semester and Cumulative GPA are credit-weighted averages of grade points; values beyond the second decimal point are truncated. For semester GPA, each GPA-counted course is converted to quality points by multiplying grade points by credits. The semester GPA is the total quality points divided by total GPA-counted credits, then rounded with floor rounding to 2 decimal places. The updated CGPA combines the student's existing quality points with this semester's quality points, then rounds with floor rounding to 2 decimal places.

Pass/fail and non-GPA grades are handled from the Tohoku University config: pass/fail handling is included only when the university data marks it as GPA-counted. Repeat-course handling uses this rule: Tohoku's official GPA page defines grade points, formula, and truncation, but a clear public repeated-course replacement rule was not found.

Worked example

Suppose a student starts with 3.00 CGPA after 30 completed credits and takes these Tohoku University courses:

  • Course 13 credits x AA (4.00 points)
  • Course 23 credits x C (1.00 points)
  • Course 33 credits x D (0.00 points)

The semester GPA is 1.66 and the updated CGPA is 2.69 using this university's rounding rules.
