The Math

How Auburn GPA Is Calculated

Auburn multiplies each grade value by credit hours to get quality points, then divides total quality points by total credit hours.

Auburn GPA Formula
\[ \text{GPA} = \frac{\displaystyle\sum \text{Quality Points}}{\displaystyle\sum \text{Credit Hours}} = \frac{\displaystyle\sum (\text{Grade Value} \times \text{Credit Hours})}{\displaystyle\sum \text{Credit Hours}} \]
Quality PointsGrade value × credit hours for each course
Credit HoursTotal graded credit hours (excludes S, U, AU, W, etc.)

📝 Worked Example

An example using four courses on the Auburn 4.0 scale:

CourseCredit HoursGradeGrade ValueQuality Points
ENGL 11003.0A4.003 × 4.00 = 12.00
MATH 16104.0B3.004 × 3.00 = 12.00
HIST 10103.0C2.003 × 2.00 = 6.00
BIOL 10202.0D1.002 × 1.00 = 2.00
Total12.032.00

Plugging into the formula:

\[ \text{GPA} = \frac{32.00}{12.0} \approx \mathbf{2.67} \]

The Conversion Formula

Auburn uses a 4.0 scale, so:

\[ \text{Percentage} = \text{GPA} \times 25 \quad \text{or equivalently} \quad \text{Percentage} = \left(\frac{\text{GPA}}{4.0}\right) \times 100 \]

Example: If your GPA is 3.5, then Percentage = 3.5 × 25 = 87.50%.
