Calculation
Grade point average will be computed by dividing the total quality points for hours with grades of A, B, C, D, F and WF by the total hours attempted with grades of A, B, C, D, F and WF. Courses with grades of P, N, I, X, W, WW, WS, WN and IE are excluded. Only courses from National Louis University will be included in the computation.
Completion Ratio
The completion ratio will be computed by dividing the number of hours completed with grades of A, B, C, D, P or X by the number of hours attempted. Courses with grades of W, WW and WS are excluded from hours attempted. Students taking only nongraded courses in any quarter are evaluated solely on the basis of their completion ratios.
