How San Francisco State University calculates GPA
San Francisco State University (California) 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 SF State grade scale — what makes it specific
A+ rule: SF State uses the CSU 4.0 plus/minus scale with NO A+ (A=4.0 max, A-=3.7, down to D-=0.7, F=0).

Repeated courses & grade replacement
