GPA Calculation MCTC- Office of the Registrar
Grade-Point Average (GPA) The grade-point average
is the ratio of the total grade points earned to
the total credit hours attempted (excluding
courses taken on a pass/fail basis and courses
with grades of "W" or "I"). Total grade points
are derived by multiplying the number of credit
hours for the course by the number of grade
points assigned to the grade earned.

• Classes that are below the 100 level do not count
  into GPA.

Other symbols used AU (Audit) has no value in
computing GPA. F represents unsatisfactory
achievement in a course taken on a pass/fail
basis. Is has no value in computing GPA. I
(Incomplete) is calculated as an E grade in the
GPA. The I will automatically go to an E after
one year if the work is not completed. W
(Withdrawal) has no value in computing GPA. P
represents a satisfactory grade in a course taken
on a pass/fail basis. It has no value in
computing GPA. MP represents Making Progress in
a developmental course. It has no value in
computing GPA.
