Grade Point Average (GPA)
GPA is determined by dividing total grade points by number of semester hours attempted. S, SA, SR, U, I, W, WI, AU and NG grades are not included in the calculations. If the course has been repeated, the last grade received in a course will be used to calculate the GPA with the exception of W, WI, AU, NG or I grades.

Pass/No Pass Policy
Certain courses will be offered on a pass/no pass (P, NP) grading basis only. These courses will not be computed into grade-point averages and include the following:
· All one-credit or one-half-credit physical education activity courses,
· All practicum or internship courses that are not part of a required scope and sequence. If the course is required in a major area of study, it will be given a letter grade pursuant to Board of Regents policy 301.5.3, and
· Seminars and workshops held on a pass/no pass basis at the discretion of the instructor and Vice President for Academic Affairs.
The grade of "P" is given if the students' work is judged to be the equivalent to "A", "B", or "C" work included pluses or minuses. The grade of "NP" is awarded if the work is equivalent to a "D+" or lower. Courses offered on a pass/no pass
grading basis are indicated as such in the Course Description section of this catalog.

Subject: [MACRAO] GPA SCALING
Does anyone have the formula for GPA scaling? We have a student in a position where they need to manually combine their GPA's from both BCC and UMT for scholarship purposes.
