How Northrise GPA Works
Northrise University uses a 4.33 GPA scale, with GPA calculated from grade points weighted by course credits.
Official Scale
Northrise publishes its GPA calculator and student handbook with a 4.33 scale. The university notes that undergraduate programs require a minimum 2.00 GPA, while postgraduate graduation requires a minimum 2.50 GPA.
1. Grade Points
| Marks Range | Grade | GPA |
|---|---|---|
| 90 - 100 | A+ | 4.33 |
| 80 - 89 | A | 4.00 |
| 75 - 79 | B+ | 3.33 |
| 70 - 74 | B | 3.00 |
| 65 - 69 | C+ | 2.67 |
| 60 - 64 | C | 2.00 |
| 55 - 59 | D+ | 1.67 |
| 50 - 54 | D | 1.00 |
| 0 - 49 | F | 0.00 |
2. Formula
Quality Points = Grade Point x Course Credits
GPA = Total Quality Points / Total Credits
The calculator rounds the final answer to two decimal places, matching Northrise's published example where 3.667 becomes 3.67.
3. Minimums
- 2.00 GPA: minimum for undergraduate programs.
- 2.50 GPA: minimum for postgraduate graduation and a financial-aid eligibility threshold for returning students.
- 3.70 GPA: top returning-student financial-aid threshold band published by Northrise.
