Grade Point
Average (GPA) Calculations
Your grade point
average (GPA) is computed by dividing the total number of units
attempted whether or not they were passed (but excluding "CR/NC"
courses and those in which administrative grades were assigned except
for the "U"/"WU"), into the number of grade (quality)
points earned. Refer to ".. academic grading symbols..." at the
top of this page for academic grade details. A 2.00 (C) average
in all college/university courses, all Cal Poly courses, and all
major courses is required for a baccalaureate degree (excluding
"CR," "NC," W"," and "AU" grades). All courses required by a major,
including those in other departments, must be included in the calculation
of the major GPA.
"CR" and "NC"
grades and units are not included in your GPA calculation.
"RP"
and "I" grades and units are not included in your GPA calculation.
If an "RP" or "I" grade becomes an "F" because you did
not complete the course work within the specified time frame, the
"F" will be included in your GPA calculation in the quarter in which
the "RP" or "I" changes.
"U"/"WU"
grades are regarded the same as "F's" in your GPA calculation.
"RD,"
"AU," and "W" grades are not included in your GPA.
