The Math

How Stevens GPA Is Calculated

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

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

📝 Worked Example

A Stevens example using three courses:

CourseCredit HoursGradeGrade PointQuality Points
CS 1153.0A4.003 × 4.00 = 12.00
MA 1213.0B−2.673 × 2.67 = 8.01
PEP 1113.0C+2.333 × 2.33 = 6.99
Total9.027.00

Plugging into the formula:

\[ \text{GPA} = \frac{27.00}{9.0} \approx \mathbf{3.00} \]

The Conversion Formula

Stevens 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%.
