How To Calculate The Overall GPA?

List all courses and their credit hours

Convert each course grade to grade points using your school’s GPA scale

Multiply each course’s grade points by its credit hours

Add all of the grade points earned across courses

Add all of the credit hours attempted across courses

Divide total grade points by total credit hours

Use the formula: Overall GPA = Total Grade Points ÷ Total Credit Hours

Include only courses counted in GPA

Exclude pass/fail, audit, or non-GPA courses if your school does not count them

Round the result according to your school’s policy
