The Math

How Ohio University GPA Is Calculated

OHIO multiplies each grade point by credit hours to get grade points earned, then divides total grade points by total hours attempted.

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

📝 Worked Example

The official Policy 12.040 example using two three-hour courses:

CourseCredit HoursGradeGrade PointGrade Points Earned
Course 13.0C2.003 × 2.00 = 6.00
Course 23.0B3.003 × 3.00 = 9.00
Total6.0——15.00

Plugging into the formula:

\[ \text{GPA} = \frac{15.00}{6.0} = \mathbf{2.50} \]

The Conversion Formula

Ohio University 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%.
