Check Your Grades

Get familiar with our Grading System.

Due to the unprecedented nature that the COVID-19 pandemic and the university, city, state, and federal mandates associated with it had on the student body at UIC, and with the consent of the UIC Senate Executive Committee and the College Deans, the Office of the Provost enacted the following modifications to the grading policy for our students at UIC during that time:

Official Announcements

 

Understanding your GPA

The GPA reported on your official UIC transcript displays two digits to the right of the decimal point and is truncated, not rounded..

Three different GPAs display on your UIC official transcript:

  1. Term GPA—the GPA for your grades for a single semester
  2. Total Institution—the GPA for all courses completed at UIC
  3. Transfer GPA—the GPA for transfer credit accepted by UIC calculated for each attendance period at institutions previously attended.

Predicting Your Future GPA

  1. For each course, multiply the grade points defined for the grade (e.g., A = 4.00; refer to our explanation of grades) by the number of credit hours for the course (e.g., 3) to calculate your quality points.
  2. Add all quality points.
  3. Add all GPA hours.
  4. Divide the sum of the quality points by the GPA hours

Example

CourseGradeGrade PointsGPA HoursQuality Points
HIST 199SN/AN/AN/A
CHEM 102B33(3.00 × 3) = 9.00
CHEM 103A45(4.00 × 5) = 20.00
ECON 100C23(2.00 × 3) = 6.00
MATH 220F01(0.00 × 1) = 0.00
CHEM140CRN/AN/AN/A
TOTAL1235

In the example report above, 35 quality points ÷ 12 GPA hours = 2.9166666, giving the student a semester GPA of 2.91.
