Quality Points

Summary

How A-B Tech evaluates the quality points of grades, also found in the Curriculum Catalog, page 81

Calculation Overview

At the end of each semester, quality points are assigned in accordance with the following formula:

Letter Grade Quality Points Per Credit Hour
A 4 quality points per credit hour
B 3 quality points per credit hour
C 2 quality points per credit hour
D 1 quality point per credit hour
F no quality points
U no quality points

 

Quality ratings are determined by dividing the total number of quality points by the number of hours attempted (excluding grades of "X," "I," and "W”). A ratio of 2.00 indicates that a student has an average of "C.”
