How the formula works

AOU Kuwait uses the credit-hour system and calculates GPA from official grade points on the 4.00 scale. 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 standard rounding to 2 decimal places. The updated CGPA combines the student's existing quality points with this semester's quality points, then rounds with standard rounding to 2 decimal places.

Pass/fail and non-GPA grades are handled from the Arab Open University Kuwait config: pass/fail handling is included only when the university data marks it as GPA-counted. Repeat-course handling uses this rule: AOU Kuwait states that grades affect GPA until the student retakes the course and passes it with a higher grade.

Worked example

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

  • Course 13 credits x A (4.00 points)
  • Course 23 credits x C+ (2.50 points)
  • Course 33 credits x F (0.00 points)

The semester GPA is 2.17 and the updated CGPA is 2.81 using this university's rounding rules.
