GPA for all courses completed at ASU. Calculated by dividing your Total Grade Points by your total number of Graded Units (credit hours).
Each letter grade is assigned a numeric value, rounded to the hundredths place.

Notes: Other grades (W, X, Y, etc.) are not included in the GPA calculation. Grades E1, E2, E3, E4, E5, and E8 are equivalent to an E.
*Although the plus/minus scale includes a grade of “A+” with a value of 4.33, the cumulative GPA is capped at 4.00. Questions about the grade scales may be referred to the University Registrar's Office at registrar@asu.edu.
Credit hours earned for which one of the following grades is assigned: A+, A, A-, B+, B, B-, C+, C, D or E. Other grades do not carry grade points (e.g. I, P, W, X, Y, Z).
This number is calculated by multiplying the grade point value by the number of graded units (credit hours) for a course.
For example—let’s say you completed an art class and you received a letter grade of “A”:
Grade point value of “A” = 4.00
Graded units (credit hours) = 3
Grade points = 12.00 (4.00 x 3)
The sum of all the grade points you've earned while at ASU. To calculate your TGP, first multiply the grade point value by the number of graded units (credit hours) for each course you've taken. This will give you the grade points for each course. Then, add all the grade points.
For example, you've completed your first semester at ASU and these are your grades:
Course | Graded Units |
Grade (value) |
Grade Points |
---|---|---|---|
MAT117 | 3 | B+ (3.33) | 9.99 |
THE100 | 3 | A (4.00) | 12.00 |
ENG101 | 3 | B (3.00) | 9.00 |
HST103 | 3 | C+ (2.33) | 6.99 |
FMS100 | 3 | A- (3.67) | 11.01 |
Total Grade Points | 48.99 |
