Cumulative Grade-Point Average

The cumulative grade-point average is computed by multiplying the grade received in each course taken for credit (and to be included in the average) by the number of credits earned in the course. The grade points earned in all such courses are added together and the sum is divided by the total credits earned in those courses.

Grade (Numerical Equivalent) x Credits = Grade Points

Total Grade Points 
   Total Credits         = Cumulative Grade-Point Average

     

Grades earned at institutions other than Rutgers and NJIT are not calculated into the cumulative grade-point average.
