UAF eCampus courses are located in Canvas though some instructors may have additional sites for your particular course. eCampus courses are typically not available to students until the first day of instruction.
Your grade point average is a weighted numerical average of the grades you earn in your courses at UAF. To compute your GPA, divide the total number of credits you have attempted into the total number of grade points you have earned.
Grade points are calculated by multiplying the number of grade points awarded in the course(s) by the number of credits attempted for the course(s). The following grades are figured in your GPA: A+, A, A-, B+, B, B-, C+, C, C-, D+, D, D- and F. Grades of I, DF, W, P, NB, AU, and CR do not carry grade points and do not affect your GPA.
The university catalog has additional information on computing your GPA.
