Every Course you will offer carries a fixed number of Credit Units. Points are derived from multiplying the Credit Units for a course by the Grade Point earned by the student in that course.
Example: If in a 3 Credit Unit course, a student scores 63% which is a B with a Grade Point of 4, the Quality points for the student in that course is 3 x 4 = 12. Grade Point Average (GPA) is derived by dividing the Total Point for the semester by the Total Unit for that semester.
Example: If in a semester, a student earned 56 quality points for 18 Credit Units, the students GPA is 56/18 = 3.11 .
Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) is derived by adding the Total Points for all semesters to date and dividing by the Total Units for all semesters to date.
