This tool allows students attending a specific Virginia university to compute their Grade Point Average (GPA). It utilizes the university’s grading scale and credit weighting system to provide an estimate of a student’s academic standing. For instance, a student can input their earned grades (e.g., A, B+, C) and the corresponding credit hours for each course to determine their cumulative or semester GPA.
Calculating one’s academic standing is crucial for monitoring progress towards graduation, assessing eligibility for scholarships or honors, and identifying areas where academic improvement is needed. Historically, such calculations were performed manually, a process prone to errors and time-consuming. The advent of automated tools provides a more efficient and accurate means of tracking academic performance.
