How to Calculate Your UAP GPA
Your semester GPA at UAP is calculated by multiplying each subject’s credit hours by its grade points, summing the results, and dividing by the total credit hours enrolled.
GPA Formula: GPA = ∑(Credit Hours × Grade Points) ÷ ∑(Credit Hours)
Example: Crop Production (3 cr, A = 4.00), Soil Fertility (3 cr, B+ = 3.33), Agricultural Economics (3 cr, B = 3.00), English (2 cr, A- = 3.67).
- Crop Production: 3 × 4.00 = 12.00
- Soil Fertility: 3 × 3.33 = 9.99
- Agricultural Economics: 3 × 3.00 = 9.00
- English: 2 × 3.67 = 7.34
- Total: 38.33 ÷ 11 credit hours = GPA 3.48

How to Calculate Your UAP CGPA
Your CGPA at UAP is the weighted average of all semester GPAs across your degree programme, with each semester weighted by its credit hours.
CGPA Formula: CGPA = ∑(Semester GPA × Semester Credit Hours) ÷ ∑(Total Credit Hours)
Example: Sem 1: GPA 3.48 (18 cr), Sem 2: GPA 3.25 (18 cr), Sem 3: GPA 3.55 (17 cr).
- Sem 1: 3.48 × 18 = 62.64
- Sem 2: 3.25 × 18 = 58.50
- Sem 3: 3.55 × 17 = 60.35
- CGPA: 181.49 ÷ 53 = CGPA 3.42

Absolute vs Relative Grading at UAP
UAP uses absolute grading — your grade is assigned based on your own marks against fixed percentage cutoffs, not relative to how others in your class performed.
| Grading Method | How It Works | Used at UAP |
|---|---|---|
| Absolute Grading | Fixed thresholds: 85%+ = A (4.00), 80–84% = A- (3.67), etc. | Standard across all programmes |
| Relative / Curve Grading | Grades adjusted based on class performance; top student always gets A | Not used as standard |
Practical and lab components at UAP are also assessed on absolute scales, with marks combined with theory components into a single course grade.
