USI final degree grades are calculated as the ECTS-weighted average of exam marks and dissertation grades; binary evaluations do not affect the final average. 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 Universita della Svizzera italiana config: supported pass grades are excluded from GPA points. Repeat-course handling uses this rule: USI official study regulations state that the determinant grade for repeated exams is the grade obtained in the last attempt. The calculator therefore removes the prior counted attempt when a previous attempt is supplied.
Suppose a student starts with 3.00 CGPA after 30 completed credits and takes these Universita della Svizzera italiana courses:
The semester GPA is 2.50 and the updated CGPA is 2.88 using this university's rounding rules.
No. This page uses the grading configuration for Universita della Svizzera italiana. Another university in Switzerland can have different grade points, rounding rules, or pass/fail handling.
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.
Pass/fail grades marked as non-GPA in the Universita della Svizzera italiana config are excluded from GPA points, although credit may still be earned when the grade allows it.
USI official study regulations state that the determinant grade for repeated exams is the grade obtained in the last attempt. The calculator therefore removes the prior counted attempt when a previous attempt is supplied.
