How to read the UWI scale

C (50 to 54) is the lowest pass. F1, F2 and F3 are fails, and they still count in the GPA with 1.70, 1.30 and 0.00 quality points. The table prints whole marks, so it does not say where a mark such as 74.5 falls.

Made-up example: a mark of 72 is a B+, worth 3.30 quality points. A mark of 45 is an F1, a fail worth 1.70.

The UWI GPA Calculator turns these quality points into a GPA, weighted by each course's credits.

  • How a repeated course counts: each Faculty's regulations set it.
  • A rounding rule for the GPA: the regulations state none.
  • UTech, Jamaica's GPA scale and honours: its site links no grading page.
  • The University of the West Indies' postgraduate GPA: it uses a different scheme, which these pages do not cover.
