This document discusses course equivalency and credit systems for higher education. It defines key terms like course equivalence, college transfer, transcripts, course credits, and credit calculation. It provides details on credit systems in India, recommendations from the University Grants Commission on grading systems and credits, and formulas for calculating semester and cumulative grade point averages using course credits and grades. Examples are given to illustrate how to determine a student's SGPA and CGPA based on their coursework over multiple semesters.

3. INTRODUCTION
 Fast moving world
 Globalization & global standards
 Education System

another.

5. BACKGROUND
 College transfer
 University migration
 Higher education.

6. COLLEGE TRANSFER

9. COURSE CREDIT
 DEFINITION: A course credit (often credit hour,
or just credit or "unit") is a unit that gives weight to

academic course taken at a school or other
educational institution.

10. TYPES OF CREDIT
 High School credit
 University Credits
 Credit hours
 Credits by Exam
 Faculty hours

11. CREDIT SYSTEM IN INDIA
 In engineering colleges
 In university results

12. RECOMMENDATION OF CREDIT BY UGC
 Applicability of the grading system
 Choice Based Credit System (CBCS)
 Credit Based Semester System (CBS
 Credit Points.
 Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA).
 Grade Point.
 Letter Grade.

13. GRADES
 Letter Grade Point
 O (Outstanding) 10
 A+(Excellent) 9
 A(Very Good) 8
 B+(Good) 7
 B(Above Average) 6
 C(Average) 5
 P (Pass) 4
 F(Fail) 0
 Ab (Absent) 0

14. CALCULATING YOUR CREDIT POINTS
 SGPA (Si) = Σ(Ci x Gi) / ΣCi
 where Ci is the number of credits of the ith course
and Gi is the grade point scored by the student in
the ith course.
 CGPA = Σ(Ci x Si) / Σ Ci
 where Si is the SGPA of the ith semester and Ci is
the total number of credits in that semester.
 The SGPA and CGPA shall be rounded off to 2
decimal points and reported in the transcripts.
SGPA (Si) = Σ(Ci x Gi) / ΣCiSGPA (Si) = Σ(Ci x Gi) / ΣCi

15. HOW TO CALCULATE CREDITS
Course Credit Grade letter Grade point Credit
point.
(Credit x
Grade)
Course 1 3 A 8 3x8=24
Course 2 3 A 8 3 x 8 = 24
Course3 4 B+ 6 3x 6=18
Course4 3 O 10 10x3=30
Course 5 3 C 5 5x3=15
Course 6 4 B 6 4x6=24
20 139
Thus SGPA is 139/20=6.95

16. ILLUSTRATION FOR SGPA
Semester CREDIT SGPA
Semester 1 20 6.9
Semester 2 25 5.6
Semester 3 26 6.0
Semester 4 26 6.3
Semester 5 25 8.0
144
Thus, CGPA = 20 x 6.9 + 22 x 7.8 + 25 x 5.6 + 26 x 6.0 + 26 x 6.3 + 25 x 8.0
