Cumulative Grade Point Average (GPA)
Some institutions assess students' performance by grade point average (GPA). The Cumulative GPA is the overall grade points obtained from ALL courses taken, including those not related to your major study. The calculation formula is:
GPA = | Sum of (Grade Points x No. of Course Credit Points) for ALL courses taken in the programme |
Total no. of Credit Points in the programme |
The highest point of GPA varies from different institutions/countries, you will normally find the information of the grading system in the legend of certificate/transcript.
Some institutions assess students' performance by score/mark. The Average Mark refers to the average of marks obtained from ALL courses taken, including those not related to your major study. The calculation formula is:
Average Mark = | Sum of marks for ALL courses taken in the programme |
Total no. of courses taken in the programme |
The highest mark varies from different institutions/countries, you will normally find the information of the grading system in the legend of certificate/transcript.
Some institutions assess students' performance by grades. If no information on GPA or conversion of grades into GPA is available, please refer to the table below for calculation:
