How the formula works

GPA is computed by dividing grade points earned at VCU by credit hours attempted at VCU. 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 VCUarts Qatar config: supported pass grades are excluded from GPA points. Repeat-course handling uses this rule: VCUarts Qatar points to VCU's Historical Repeat policy, which has eligibility limits, forms, program exceptions, timing rules, and D/F-specific replacement. Repeated courses require manual review before automated GPA replacement.

Worked example

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

  • Course 13 credits x A (4.00 points)
  • Course 23 credits x D (1.00 points)
  • Course 33 credits x FI (0.00 points)

The semester GPA is 1.67 and the updated CGPA is 2.69 using this university's rounding rules.

How is semester GPA calculated at VCUarts Qatar?

The calculator multiplies each GPA-counted grade point by its credits, adds the quality points, divides by GPA-counted credits, and applies standard rounding to 2 decimal places.

Are pass/fail courses included in GPA?

Pass/fail grades marked as non-GPA in the VCUarts Qatar config are excluded from GPA points, although credit may still be earned when the grade allows it.

What about repeated courses?

VCUarts Qatar points to VCU's Historical Repeat policy, which has eligibility limits, forms, program exceptions, timing rules, and D/F-specific replacement. Repeated courses require manual review before automated GPA replacement.
