How Binghamton GPA Is Calculated

Binghamton multiplies each grade point by credit hours to get quality points, then divides total quality points by total GPA hours.

Binghamton GPA Formula
\[ \text{GPA} = \frac{\displaystyle\sum \text{Quality Points}}{\displaystyle\sum \text{GPA Hours}} = \frac{\displaystyle\sum (\text{Grade Point} \times \text{Credit Hours})}{\displaystyle\sum \text{Credit Hours}} \]
Quality PointsGrade point value × credit hours for each course
GPA HoursTotal graded credit hours (excludes P, W, I, etc.)
