A tool designed to compute grade point average based on the University of Florida’s specific grading scale and credit system. It allows students to estimate their semester or cumulative GPA by inputting course grades and credit hours. For example, a student can input an “A” in a 3-credit course and a “B+” in a 4-credit course to determine the resulting GPA for that term.
This computational aid provides students with an understanding of their academic standing and progress towards graduation requirements. It facilitates academic planning by allowing students to project potential GPA outcomes based on anticipated grades in future courses. Historically, such computations were performed manually; the availability of automated tools streamlines the process, providing more rapid and accurate results.
