*Note
-
CR, NC, I RD, RP, AU, W and SP grades do not have any grade point values. Also, grades of “C” do not help raise your GPA and grades of “C-” and below lower your GPA.
-
“U”, “WU” or “IC” grades are equal to an “F” in calculating grade points.
Tip: During the semester, you can estimate your grade point total based on your projected grades for this semester.
| Current Class(es) | Unit(s) | Projected Grade | Potential Grade Points |
|---|---|---|---|
| TH A 125 | 3 | A | +6 |
| PSY 200 | 3 | C+ | +0.9 |
| HIST 120 | 3 | B- | +2.1 |
| KIN 250 | 3 | B- | +2.1 |
Projected total for semester = +11.1 grade points
If you started the semester with a -10.1 grade point deficit, after the projected grades, you will have a +1.0 grade point deficit and will be in good academic standing.

| PLSI 200 | 3 | B | +3 |
| CWL 250 | 3 | D | -3 |
| MATH 124 | 3 | CR | 0 |
Projected total for semester = 0 grade points
If you started the semester with a -10.1 grade point deficit, after the projected grades, you will still have -10.1 grade points and will not be in good academic standing based on these projected grades.
Directions
Please do a separate calculation for the SF State and Combined Cum GPA using your SF State unofficial transcript.
