Does RIT provide a GPA calculator?

Stressed junior here. I'm trying to calculate my GPA for Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT), but I'm confused about their scale. Does anyone know if RIT provides an official GPA calculator or conversion table that I can use? I want to make sure I'm calculating everything right.

I understand how important it is for you to accurately gauge your GPA according to RIT's standards. But as far as my knowledge goes, Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) does not provide an official GPA calculator. However, it's important to note that RIT uses a semester-based credit system and traditionally uses a 4.0 scale.

Generally, if you're calculating your GPA according to a standard 4.0 scale, you can assign each grade you've earned a corresponding point value (For example, an A = 4.0, B = 3.0, C = 2.0, D = 1.0, and F = 0), then sum up your points, and divide by the total number of classes. AP or Honors courses often have an added value (For instance, A = 5.0, instead of 4.0).

Remember, each high school and collegiate institution may have its unique system for GPA calculation, so it's always worth consulting with your school's guidance counselor for the most accurate information. They may also have specific tools or resources to make the process easier. Moreover, when you apply, RIT will conduct its own calculation based on transcripts and considers the rigor of your coursework as well. So, focusing on maintaining strong grades in demanding classes is a great strategy. Good luck with your journey!
