Your Grades

The College at Brockport uses the grading system found in many colleges and universities, awarding a letter grade of "A" through "E" to indicate the level of accomplishment in each course for which you are registered. Each of these letters carries quality points, which are the basis for computing your semester index and cumulative index, often referred to as your grade point average (GPA). The letter grades and their associated quality points are as follows in the chart below.

In order to earn an undergraduate degree from Brockport you must complete your degree requirements with an overall grade point average (GPA) of 2.0. If you are a full-time student (12 credits or more) you must have attainded a GPA of 1.00 by the end of the first semester or you will be academically dismissed. After the first semester you must attain an overall GPA of 2.0 to avoid probation and dismissal.  For more information about grades, refer to the Student Handbook.

Also use our Brockport GPA calculator to estimate your mid-term or semester GPA.
