How the formula works

GPA is calculated by multiplying each course's credit units by its grade points, summing those products, and dividing by the total credit units. 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 Kuwait University config: supported pass grades are excluded from GPA points. Repeat-course handling uses this rule: Kuwait University's credit system bylaw includes repeated-course rules with first-ten-course limits, alternative-course handling, and failed-course resit details. The current engine cannot model those transcript conditions exactly.

Worked example

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

  • Course 13 credits x A (4.00 points)
  • Course 23 credits x B (3.00 points)
  • Course 33 credits x C (2.00 points)

The semester GPA is 3.00 and the updated CGPA is 3.00 using this university's rounding rules.
