How your result is calculated

Rule set v2026.10.02 · Verified 2 Oct 2026
Term GPA
Term GPA = Σ (Semester credit hours × Grade point) ÷ Σ Semester credit hours
Cumulative GPA
Cumulative GPA = Σ (Semester credit hours × Grade point) over all courses ÷ Σ Semester credit hours
Rules the calculator follows
  • Grade points = the grade's points × the semester credit hours (an A in a 3-hour course = 12 grade points). GPA = total grade points ÷ semester credit hours for which a grade other than I, NC or CR is received.
  • A+ earns the same 4.000 grade points as A; minus and plus grades are printed to three decimals (A- 3.670, B+ 3.330 … D- 0.670).
  • All GPAs, term and cumulative, are rounded from the fourth to the third decimal place and shown with three decimals.
  • Only grades earned at UT Dallas are used in the GPA; accepted transfer credit counts only toward hours for graduation.
  • Credit/no credit: CR means C (2.000) or better; courses taken credit/no credit are not used in the GPA. Limited to 12 semester credit hours or 20% of UT Dallas upper-division coursework, whichever is smaller (courses offered only as credit/no credit in the major excluded).
  • Repeats: only a course graded C- or below may be repeated for a better grade, with at most three grade-bearing attempts (withdrawals count as attempts). The grade from the first attempt is not used in the GPA; every later attempt is used. All grades stay on the transcript.
  • A course failed at UT Dallas and then passed elsewhere keeps the UT Dallas F in the cumulative GPA.
  • An Incomplete not completed within the instructor's deadline (at most eight weeks from the start of the next long semester) changes automatically to F.
