How Emory University Calculates GPA
Understanding your Grade Point Average (GPA) is crucial for academic success at Emory University. Your GPA is calculated based on the number of "Quality Points" you earn divided by the total number of credit hours attempted for a letter grade.
Emory Grading Scale
Emory College uses a standard 4.0 scale with plus and minus grades. Note that Emory does not award an "A+" grade, and grades of S (Satisfactory) or U (Unsatisfactory) do not carry quality points and therefore do not impact your GPA calculations.

The Calculation Formula
To calculate your GPA manually:
Determine Quality Points per Course: Multiply the credit hours of the course by the quality points value of your grade. (e.g., a 3-credit course with an A- (3.7) yields 11.1 Quality Points).
Sum Total Quality Points: Add up all quality points from all valid courses.
Sum Total Graded Credits: Add up all credit hours attempted (excluding S/U courses).
Divide: Total Quality Points รท Total Graded Credits = GPA.
Dean's List Requirements
At Emory, full-time students who achieve a GPA of 3.85 or higher in a semester while completing at least 12 graded credit hours are typically eligible for the Dean's List.
function calculateEmoryGPA() {
// Initialize variables
var semCredits = 0;

semCredits += cr;
semQualityPoints += (cr * gp);
}
}

// If prior data exists, add it to the calculation
if (!isNaN(curGPA) && !isNaN(curCredits) && curCredits > 0) {
var prevQualityPoints = curGPA * curCredits;
totalQualityPoints += prevQualityPoints;
totalCredits += curCredits;
cumGPA = totalQualityPoints / totalCredits;
