Students can calculate their Grade Point Average (GPA) if they know the following information:

Credits attempted - These are the total number of credits taken at UNT.

Final Grades Earned - Using your unofficial transcript, you can see the grades you earned in all your classes in your program

Point values for those grades - Each grade is assigned a point value. Use the chart below to determine the point values for your grades.
