TehKniight Posted September 1, 2015 Report Share Posted September 1, 2015 For the GPA calculation, does Western look at the course as a whole, regardless of it being 6 credit hours (2 semester) or 3 credit hours (1 semester)? Example: A+ (6 credit hours) = 95% Is the above example considered 95% once or twice (since it's equivalent to 2x 1 semester courses)? I assume it's considered once, but figured I'd ask anyways. Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olyal Posted September 2, 2015 Report Share Posted September 2, 2015 Every GPA calculation I have seen takes into account the credit weight, I would imagine 95% on a 6-credit course is the equivalent of 95% on two 3-credit courses. This is only an assumption though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't quite sure about Western and other schools that utilize percentages so I was curious. Thanks to both of you for the clarification!
