Understanding the Creighton University Grading System
Your Grade Point Average (GPA) is calculated by dividing the total number of quality points earned by the total number of credit hours attempted. Creighton University uses a standard 4.0 scale to assign quality points for each letter grade.

GPA Calculation Example
Let's see how the calculation works with a sample semester:
BIO 201 (4 credits) with a grade of B (3.0): 4 credits * 3.0 points = 12.0 quality points
MTH 245 (4 credits) with a grade of A- (3.7): 4 credits * 3.7 points = 14.8 quality points
PHL 110 (3 credits) with a grade of B+ (3.3): 3 credits * 3.3 points = 9.9 quality points
Your GPA is a key indicator of your academic success and impacts several areas of your student life:
Academic Standing: Maintaining a minimum GPA is required to remain in good academic standing and avoid probation.
Dean's List: A high semester GPA (typically 3.5 or above) can earn you a place on the Dean's List, a notable academic honor.
Scholarships & Financial Aid: Many scholarships have GPA requirements for eligibility and renewal.
Graduate School & Professional Programs: A strong cumulative GPA is critical for applications to medical school, law school, and other graduate programs.
