Understanding Grades<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Why do your grades matter?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your grades show potential employers and graduate schools how well you mastered the course content. They may also be seen as a reflection of your work ethic. Your grades can also affect your eligibility to play sports, earn scholarships, and maintain financial aid. Most importantly, if you do not earn high enough grades, you won’t be able to graduate with a degree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This page describes what types of grades exist, how to access your grades, and what your grades mean. It also explains how to calculate your GPA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
