How Dartmouth College calculates GPA
Dartmouth College (New Hampshire) 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 Dartmouth grade scale — what makes it specific
A+ rule: Dartmouth does NOT award A+. The scale tops out at A = 4.0, the failing grade is E (not F), and there is no D-.
Failing grade: Dartmouth College uses "E" for a failing grade (0.0).
Repeated courses & grade replacement
Repeat provisions are limited; confirm with the registrar.
Academic standing
Dartmouth is on the quarter (term) system. The registrar computes GPA on a 4.0 scale (A = 4.0, A- = 3.67, ... E = 0); the transcript also shows a 12-point quality-point figure that is just ×3 of the 4.0 values.
Good to know
Dartmouth has no A+ (the max is a plain A = 4.0) and uses E, not F, for failing — with no D-. The letter set is A, A-, B+, B, B-, C+, C, C-, D, E. Dartmouth runs on a quarter system. (You may see Dartmouth quote 'quality points' out of 12; that's simply three times the 4.0 grade-point values and converts back to a 4.0 GPA.)
