The total number of registered credits includes credits for failing grades.The GPA is calculated using the following formula:{(No. of A+ credits x 4) + (No. of A credits x 3) + (No. of B credits x 2)=GPA *The GPA will be rounded to the second decimal place.(II) Courses used in the GPA calculationThe GPA calculation considers only registered courses that count as credit toward graduation. The following grades, however, will not be included in the GPA calculation even if credit from the course is counted toward the minimum number of credits required for graduation. ・N: Pass for credit transfer・H: (※Once the H grade is changed to an A+, A, B, C, or F, then it is included in the GPA calculation)・P: P(Pass) or Q(Fail)(III) GPA on the Grade Report and Transcript of Academic Record Please note that the GPA will appear on the grade report, but not on the transcript of academic record. We can issue a “transcript of academic record / GPA” indicating the GPA and the grades used in the GPA calculation.Students who caught cheating in examinations or reports will be suspended and fail all courses for which the students are registered during the term when the cheating occurred, in principle, under university regulations. As a result, the students may well not be able to graduate within the prescribed period. In addition, the following measures will also be taken.1. Your student ID card is retained by each School/Graduate School.2. Class attendance including online classes or research activities is prohibited.
