This tool is a digital application designed to compute a student’s Grade Point Average (GPA) specifically following the grading system of the University of Hawaii at Mnoa. It allows students to input their course grades and credit hours to produce an overall GPA, reflecting their academic performance at the university. For example, a student might input an “A” grade for a 3-credit course and a “B” grade for a 4-credit course; the calculator will then compute the resulting GPA based on the UH Mnoa grading scale.
The availability of this calculation method provides several advantages. It enables students to proactively monitor their academic standing and predict the impact of future grades on their overall GPA. This awareness is crucial for maintaining eligibility for scholarships, honor societies, and specific academic programs. Historically, students may have manually calculated their GPA, a process prone to error and time-consuming. This digital aid streamlines the process and improves accuracy, empowering students to take ownership of their academic progress.
