How Coastal Carolina University calculates GPA
Coastal Carolina University calculates GPA as a credit-weighted average: multiply each course’s grade points by its credits, add them up, and divide by total credits. The detail that matters is the grade scale.
The Coastal Carolina grade scale — what makes it specific
A+ rule: On the Coastal Carolina scale, there is no A+ — A = 4.0 is the top grade, and there is no D-.
Failing grade: Coastal Carolina University uses "F" for a failing grade (0.0).
Repeated courses & grade replacement
Under 'Repeat Forgiveness' (up to 13 undergraduate credits), the highest grade attempt automatically replaces the lowest grade in the GPA; both grades stay on the transcript. Beyond that, a 'Standard Repeat' counts both grades in the GPA.
