Princeton's official conversion guidance multiplies grade point value by semester hours, then divides total points by total semester hours for courses graded A+ through F. 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 Princeton University config: supported pass grades are excluded from GPA points. Repeat-course handling uses this rule: Princeton's cited GPA conversion guidance does not define a general repeated-course GPA replacement rule.
Suppose a student starts with 3.00 CGPA after 30 completed credits and takes these Princeton University courses:
The semester GPA is 3.20 and the updated CGPA is 3.05 using this university's rounding rules.
No. This page uses the grading configuration for Princeton University. Another university in United States 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 Princeton University config are excluded from GPA points, although credit may still be earned when the grade allows it.
Princeton's cited GPA conversion guidance does not define a general repeated-course GPA replacement rule.
