COMPUTATION OF SGPA AND CGPA
The University has adopted UGC recommended Procedure for computation of Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA) and Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA):
(a) The SGPA is the ratio of sum of the product of the number of credits with the grade point scored by a student in all the subject taken by a student and the sum of the number of credits of all the subjects undergone by a student, i.e.
Where Ci is the number of credits of the ith Course and Gi is the grade point scored by the students ith Subject.
(b) The CGPA is also calculated in the same manner taking into account all the subjects undergone by a student over all the semesters of a programme, i.e.
Where Si is the SGPA of the ith Semester and Ci is the total number of Credits in that semester.
(c) The SGPA and CGPA shall be rounded off to 2 decimal points and reported in the transcripts.
REGULATION FOR PASSING
5≤CGPA<6 will be equivalent to pass in Second Class
6≤CGPA<7.5 will be equivalent to pass in First Class
CGPA≥7.5 will be equivalent to pass in First Class with Distinction
Student Support and Interventions:
To support students in meeting the participation requirements, we have established a dedicated student support team. This team monitors participation levels and reaches out to students who are at risk of falling below the 75% threshold. Personalized interventions, including academic counselling and additional support sessions, are offered to these students.
Equivalence of CGPA in to Percentage
CGPA * 10 will be equal to Percentage of Marks Secured
Compliance and Documentation:
AB: Absent
NA: Not Applicable
CA: Paper Cancelled
UFM: Unfair Means
F: Failed in Subjects
SP: Special Examination
The procedures followed for awarding marks and fixing grades for ODL. Programmes such as MBA, BBA, MCA & BCA are as same as the programmes offered in the regular mode (Conventional mode).
