Grades and Transcripts

Grades
Students may obtain their grades using ASSIST. You can login to myUTRGV with your UTRGV username and password and click on the ASSIST icon under the Applications area.  Students requiring a paper copy of their grades may submit the  online Transcript Request.

Grade Point Average (GPA) Calculation
The total grade point average (GPA) at the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley is calculated on the basis of courses taken at the University and excludes transferred grades.  Coursework transferred from the University of Texas at Brownsville-Texas Southmost College for students enrolled at UTRGV prior to Fall 2017 will be included in the calculation of the total GPA. The grade point average (GPA) is computed by dividing the total grade points earned by the total hours attempted. The current semester grade point average is calculated using only coursework attempted within a specific semester. The total GPA is used to determine academic standing.

Grading System
UTRGV uses a 4.0 system.  The following grades are used to designate achievement in coursework. Their corresponding grade values and points are indicated.

A Excellent 4 grade points per hour
B Good 3 grade points per hour
C Satisfactory 2 grade points per hour
D Below Average 1 grade point per hour - may not be assigned in graduate classes
F Failure 0 grade points per hour
P Passing not considered in calculating grade points or attempted hours; however, hours are counted in total earned hours
NP No Pass not considered in calculating grade points or attempted hours
IP In Progress not considered in calculating grade points or attempted hours; for remedial courses only
I Incomplete not considered in calculating grade points or attempted hours
CR Credit not considered in calculating grade points or attempted hours; however, hours are counted in total earned hours
NC No Credit not considered in calculating grade points or attempted hours
DR Course Dropped not considered in calculating grade points or attempted hours
W Withdrawal from School not considered in calculating grade points or attempted hours

Academic Suspension & Probation (minimum GPA for Good standing)

Students who have been placed on suspension are ineligible to register for courses at UT Rio Grande Valley until the suspension period has been completed (a fall or spring semester). Undergraduate students must maintain a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.0 for their classification to be in good academic standing. 

MA students must maintain a cumulative grade point average of 3.0 and meet their department’s academic progress criteria toward degree completion to be in good academic standing.  

DR students must maintain a cumulative grade point average of 3.25 and meet their department’s academic progress criteria toward degree completion to be in good academic standing.
