SMU Grading System Overview

SMU uses a 4-point grading system to calculate students' Grade Point Average (GPA). Letter grades from A+ to F correspond to grade points from 4.3 to 0, with plus or minus variations within some letter grades. A student's GPA is calculated by dividing their total grade points by total course units attempted. If a student's GPA calculation exceeds 4 points, it is rounded down to a maximum of 4.00 GPA.

Grading System SMU has a 4-point grading system.

The following grade notations are used in calculating the Grade Point Average (GPA), which is the quotient of total grade points divided by total course units attempted: Grade A+ A AB+ B BC+ C CD+ D F Grade Point 4.3 4.0 3.7 3.3 3.0 2.7 2.3 2.0 1.7 1.3 1.0 0.0 Mark Range 86 and above 83 to 85 80 to 82 77 to 79 74 to 76 70 to 73 66 to 69 63 to 65 60 to 62 53 to 59 50 to 52 49 and below

Where computations result in the cumulative GPA exceeding the 4-point grading system, a round down approach will be adopted. The highest cumulative GPA attainable by a student is 4.00.
