UMKC GPA Calculator
What is GPA?
Grade Point Average (GPA) is a standardized measurement of academic achievement in courses. It is calculated by dividing the total number of grade points earned by the total number of credit hours attempted. At UMKC, the GPA system uses a 4.0 scale, where each letter grade corresponds to a specific number of grade points. The GPA serves as a crucial indicator of academic performance and is often used to determine academic standing, eligibility for certain programs, and graduation requirements.
