How the Al Akhawayn University GPA formula works

Al Akhawayn University converts every graded course into quality points by multiplying the grade's point value by the course's credit hours. Your semester GPA is the total quality points divided by the total credit hours that count toward the GPA, and the result is cut off (always rounded down) to 2 decimal places. Points run from 0.0 up to 4.0, so a higher average is a better result. The scale uses plus and minus grades, so there are 13 distinct point values rather than a handful of whole steps: A+ is worth 4.0 and A is worth 4.0.

What gets left out of the average

P, CR, CRE, PMC, AU, IP, NPR, W, WP, and I carry no point value at Al Akhawayn University, so a course marked with one of them drops out of the division entirely — it changes neither the top nor the bottom of the fraction. P, CR, CRE, and PMC still earn credit toward your degree while staying out of the GPA, which is why your credit total can climb in a semester where your GPA barely moves. F and WF work the other way: they earn no credit but are still counted in the average at 0.0 points, so a failed course pulls the average down while adding nothing to your progress.

How this semester rolls into your CGPA

AUI calculates quality points by multiplying credits attempted by grade value. GPA is total quality points divided by credits attempted; CGPA uses all attempted credits and quality points accumulated at AUI. In practice that means your existing CGPA is turned back into quality points by multiplying it by your completed credits, this semester's quality points are added on, and the total is divided by your new credit total. Both the semester and the cumulative figures are cut off (always rounded down) to 2 decimal places. The better of the two attempts is the one that counts; the weaker grade is dropped from the cumulative average.

How Al Akhawayn University compares with other Morocco universities

Al Akhawayn University is the only Morocco university covered here using the 4.00 GPA scale; the other 1 university on this site grade on different scales entirely, so their GPA numbers are not comparable with yours. Rounding is not uniform either: Al Akhawayn University has its cumulative average cut off (always rounded down) to 2 decimal places, whereas International Institute for Higher Education in Morocco does it differently.

A GPA only means something alongside the scale it was calculated on, which is why comparing raw numbers between institutions — even neighbouring ones — is unreliable. See the Morocco comparison table for every university covered there side by side.

Worked examples

Each example below is run through the same engine the calculator uses, so the numbers show Al Akhawayn University's own rounding.

A typical graded semester

A student sitting at 2.88 after 60 completed credits takes 3 courses worth 3 credits each.

  • Core course3 credits × A+ (4.0 points)
  • Elective3 credits × A- (3.67 points)
  • Lab or seminar3 credits × B (3.0 points)

Semester GPA 3.55 · Updated CGPA 2.96

The semester total is 32.01 quality points over 9 counted credits. Because the cumulative average now spans 69 credits, one semester moves it only a little — this is why a CGPA gets harder to shift the further into a degree you are.

Adding a course graded P

The same student adds a fourth 3-credit course graded P (Pass).

  • Core course3 credits × A+ (4.0 points)
  • Elective3 credits × A- (3.67 points)
  • Lab or seminar3 credits × B (3.0 points)
  • Pass course3 credits × P (no grade points)

Semester GPA 3.55 · Updated CGPA 2.96

The semester GPA is unchanged at 3.55. P carries no grade points at Al Akhawayn University, so the course is removed from both sides of the division — even though the credit still counts toward the degree. Students often expect a fourth course to move the average and are surprised when it does not.

What one F costs

The same semester again, but the last course comes back as F (Fail) instead.

  • Core course3 credits × A+ (4.0 points)
  • Elective3 credits × A- (3.67 points)
  • Failed course3 credits × F (0.0 points)

Semester GPA 2.55 · Updated CGPA 2.83

The semester GPA slips from 3.55 to 2.55, and the cumulative average slips from 2.96 to 2.83. F is worth 0.0 points and earns no credit, so it weighs the average down while adding nothing to your degree progress.

What this semester does to your CGPA

A student with a 2.88 CGPA after 60 credits takes 4 courses worth 3 credits each (12 credits in total). Here is where that CGPA lands if every course comes back at the same grade — calculated with the Al Akhawayn University scale and rounding.

Common mistakes when calculating your Al Akhawayn University GPA

These are the places where the Al Akhawayn University rules differ from what most students assume, and where a hand calculation usually goes wrong.

  1. Assuming your GPA rounds up

    Al Akhawayn University cuts the cumulative average off at 2 decimal places rather than rounding to the nearest. A calculated 3.4989 is recorded as 3.49, not 3.50 — which matters when a scholarship or honours threshold sits on the boundary.

  2. Counting P, CR, CRE, and PMC courses in the average

    These earn credit at Al Akhawayn University but carry no grade points, so they belong in your credit total and nowhere near the GPA division. Including them is one of the most common reasons a hand-calculated GPA comes out wrong.

  3. Dropping a failed course from the calculation

    F and WF earn no credit toward the degree, but they are still counted in the GPA at 0.0 points. Leaving a failure out flatters the result.

  4. Guessing the plus/minus values

    At Al Akhawayn University, A+ is worth 4.0 and A is worth 4.0. Those steps differ between universities, so a value copied from another school's chart will quietly skew the whole average.

  5. Averaging the grades instead of weighting them

    A course worth twice the credits moves your GPA twice as much. Adding up your grade points and dividing by the number of courses ignores that weighting and is almost always wrong.

  6. Expecting a 0-credit course to move the number

    Al Akhawayn University allows them, but with no credit hours they contribute nothing to either side of the division.

  7. Handling a retake by guesswork

    The better of the two attempts is the one that counts; the weaker grade is dropped from the cumulative average. Check the current catalog before assuming an old grade has left your record.

Al Akhawayn University GPA — frequently asked questions

What is a passing grade at Al Akhawayn University?

D (1.0 points) is the weakest grade in the Al Akhawayn University table that still earns credit. Anything below it — F and WF — is counted in your GPA but earns no credit toward the degree. Individual programmes can set a higher minimum for courses in your major, so check your programme handbook as well.

What is the best GPA you can get at Al Akhawayn University?

4.0 on the 4.00 GPA scale, which you reach by earning A+ (4.0 points) in every course that counts toward the GPA.

Does Al Akhawayn University round GPA up?

The cumulative average is cut off (always rounded down) to 2 decimal places, and the semester average is cut off (always rounded down) to 2 decimal places. Because the cumulative figure is truncated rather than rounded, a result just short of a threshold stays short of it — 3.4999 is recorded as 3.49.

Is this a generic Morocco GPA formula?

No. This page is generated from the grading configuration for Al Akhawayn University alone — its 13 point values, its floor rounding, and its own rules for pass/fail and repeated courses. Other universities in Morocco routinely use different point values or a different scale entirely, so the same grades can produce a different GPA elsewhere.

Do pass/fail courses affect my GPA?

No. P, CR, CRE, and PMC earn credit at Al Akhawayn University without carrying grade points, so they are excluded from the GPA division entirely. Your completed-credit total goes up while the average stays where it was.

Which grades are excluded from the Al Akhawayn University GPA?

P (Pass), CR (Pass/Fail Credit), CRE (Credit by Examination), PMC (Prematriculated Credit), AU (Audit), IP (In Progress), NPR (Not Passed and Replaced), W (Withdrawal), WP (Withdrawal Pass), and I (Incomplete) carry no grade points and are left out of the average. Of those, P, CR, CRE, and PMC still earn credit toward the degree.

What happens to my GPA if I repeat a course?

The better of the two attempts is the one that counts; the weaker grade is dropped from the cumulative average.

How much does one semester change my cumulative GPA?

Your CGPA is weighted by every credit you have already completed, so a single semester moves it less the further along you are. Fifteen credits added to sixty already completed is a fifth of your record; the same fifteen added to a hundred and twenty is an eighth of it. Use the calculator at the top of this page with your real completed-credit total rather than estimating the movement.

What percentage is a A+ at Al Akhawayn University?

A+ covers 97–100% and is worth 4.0 grade points. The full percentage-to-grade table for all 12 graded bands is published on this page.

Is this calculator official?

No. GPAWorld is an independent tool and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Al Akhawayn University. The grading data on this page was taken from Al Akhawayn University 2023-2024 Catalog and last verified on 2026-07-20; every source is linked on this page so you can check it yourself.

Notes on this university's data

Judgement calls and caveats recorded when this grading configuration was built from the official sources. They are published so you can see exactly what the calculator assumes.

  • Al Akhawayn University has its own official grading system and is not treated as a generic Morocco formula.
  • A+ and A both use 4.00 grade points because the official catalog assigns both grades 4.00.
  • The official GPA example 47.33 / 16 = 2.95 indicates truncation to two decimals, so GPA rounding is encoded as floor.
  • P, CR, CRE, PMC, AU, IP, NPR, W, WP, and I are excluded from GPA based on the official catalog descriptions; WF is encoded as 0.00 because the catalog assigns WF grade points of 0.00.
  • The catalog states an I grade may later become a letter grade or F if not completed, so unresolved I grades are excluded and require recalculation after conversion.
