Grade Point Average Calculation
The cumulative GPA is calculated by dividing the total number of grade points earned in courses by the total number of credit hours attempted. Passing grades received in pass/fail courses are not included in this computation. (Richmont does not round up a GPA.) The grade points for academic letter grades are for credit hours attempted.
Richmont has adopted the following grade points for academic letter grades:
| A 93+ |
A- 90-92 |
|
| B+ 88-89 |
B 83-87 |
B- 80-82 |
| C+ 78-79 |
C 73-77 |
C- 70-72 |
| |
F <70 |
|
Grades and grade status are further defined:
| P |
Pass (0 grade points assigned) |
| F |
Fail (0 grade points assigned) |
| I |
Incomplete |
| IP |
In Progress (incomplete assignments and incomplete clinical hours) |
| X |
In Progress (complete assignments and incomplete clinical hours) |
| W |
Withdrawal |
| WP |
Withdrawal Passing |
| WF |
Withdrawal Failing |
| AU |
Audit |
| U |
Unsatisfactory (used only for audited class) |
| NR |
Not Reported |
Grades received in courses from other colleges or universities that are approved for transfer to Richmont will not be calculated in the Richmont GPA. When a course is repeated, the initial course remains on the transcript with the originally earned grade but the original grade is no longer calculated into the GPA.
