Understanding the JHU GPA Calculation

At Johns Hopkins University, academic performance is measured using a 4.0 grading scale. Whether you are a student at the Krieger School of Arts and Sciences or the Whiting School of Engineering, understanding how your grade point average is calculated is crucial for maintaining academic standing and eligibility for honors.

The Johns Hopkins Grading Scale

JHU uses a standardized weighting system for letter grades. Each grade is assigned a point value:

• A: 4.0
• A-: 3.7
• B+: 3.3
• B: 3.0
• B-: 2.7
• C+: 2.3
• C: 2.0
• C-: 1.7
• D+: 1.3
• D: 1.0
• F: 0.0

How to Calculate Your Semester GPA

1. Multiply the point value of your grade by the number of credits for the course (this gives you Quality Points).
2. Sum all the Quality Points from your semester courses.
3. Divide the total Quality Points by the total number of credits attempted.

Example Calculation

Suppose a JHU student takes four classes:

• General Chemistry (4 credits): Grade A- (3.7) → 4 × 3.7 = 14.8 points
  Calculus I (4 credits): Grade B+ (3.3) → 4 × 3.3 = 13.2 points
  Expository Writing (3 credits): Grade A (4.0) → 3 × 4.0 = 12.0 points
  Introductory Physics (4 credits): Grade B (3.0) → 4 × 3.0 = 12.0 points

Total Quality Points: 14.8 + 13.2 + 12.0 + 12.0 = 52.0
Total Credits: 4 + 4 + 3 + 4 = 15
GPA: 52.0 / 15 = 3.47

Important JHU Policies

Keep in mind that "S" (Satisfactory) or "U" (Unsatisfactory) grades are not included in the GPA calculation. Similarly, "I" (Incomplete) and "W" (Withdrawal) marks do not impact your point average. If you are calculating your cumulative GPA, ensure you include all previous semesters' credits and quality points in your total.
