How To Calculate CGPA In Nigerian Higher Institutions
Over: When one fails a course, it leads to carry over. It means the student will have to sit for that course in the following session. In most schools when you fail a course, it will affect your GPA for that semester. When you sit for the course in the following session, it will add to your workload.
Missing Script: a missing script is a situation whereby your exam script for a particular subject was not found. It is expected that you sit for the course again. In some school such result is considered as a fresh exam and it will not have a direct effect on the semester. But some school will take it as carry over. However make sure you don’t have a carry over or a missing script because it will slow you pace in academics acceleration.
Letter Grades: They are alphabet from A to F representing grade obtained in a particular subject.

Core Course
These are courses that must be offered and passed by all students in any undergraduate programme.
Elective Course
These are course which can be registered only under the advice of the academic adviser as require courses, and must be passed by a student in order to graduate.
Work Load
A student is normally in any one academic year allowed to register for at least 30 credits and at most 48 credits depending on your institutions. You can’t be credited more than 48 credits (or the maximum credits) at the session. Consequent to this, students carry over courses cannot be allowed to register more that approved maximum number or unit for the session. Without prejudice to the above, a graduating student may register for only the number of credit he/she requires to graduate.

Calculation of Final Cumulative Grade Point Average (FCGPA)
To calculate the FCGPA, add all the CGPA and divided by the numbers of years if a student of a university has the following CGPA: 4.00, 3.85, 5.0, 4.50, then the FCGPA will be calculated as follows
FCGPA = 4.00 + 3.85 + 5.00 + 4.50
4
= 17.35 = 4.33
4
For a University student this grade is Second Class Upper Division. (See page……… for polytechnic and College of Education) Note for Polytechnic and College of Education will be divided by two for ND and HND and by three for NCE.
Direct Entry Students
A University direct entry student is either three or four years as the case may be. Thus the calculation for FCGPA for a direct entry student will be according to the numbers of years. Example
3 years
4.00 + 3.85 + 5.00
3 = 4.283
4 years
5.00 + 4.00 + 4.00 + 5.00
4 = 4.50

For a University student this grade is Second Class Upper Division. (See page……… for polytechnic and College of Education) Note for Polytechnic and College of Education will be divided by two for ND and HND and by three for NCE.
Direct Entry Students
A University direct entry student is either three or four years as the case may be. Thus the calculation for FCGPA for a direct entry student will be according to the numbers of years. Example
3 years
4.00 + 3.85 + 5.00
3 = 4.283
4 years
5.00 + 4.00 + 4.00 + 5.00
4 = 4.50
