Understanding Your Transcript
For the purpose of computing your grade point average (GPA), grade points are assigned to each of the grades for each semester hour as follows:
GRADES |
DEFINITION |
VALUE |
A |
Excellent |
4.00 |
B |
Good |
3.00 |
C |
Average |
2.00 |
D |
Passing |
1.00 |
E |
Failure |
0.00 |
The following grades have no grade point value, therefore, cannot be calculated into your GPA: "I," Incomplete; "P," Pass; "W," Withdrawal; "Y," Satisfactory.When calculating your GPA, you will need to know the following:
- Semester GPA is based on semester net hours.Cumulative GPA is based on total net hours.ER (Earned Hours): This reflects the total hours earned ASU, including those earned with “P” or “Y” grades. This also includes credits transferred from another college or university.NT (Net Hours): This reflects only the hours earned at ASU in courses graded “A,” “B,” “C,” “D,” or “E.”
- HP (Honor Points): This reflects the total honor points for all semesters at ASU.
This is an example of what an unofficial transcript looks like:
