BAIC — Calicut University B.C.A Honours Programme Scheme and Syllabus | BAIC

When students take audit courses, they will be given Pass (P) or Fail (F) grade without any credits. The successful completion of all the courses and capstone components prescribed for the three-year or four-year programme with 'P' grade shall be the minimum requirement for the award of UG Degree or UG Degree (Honours) or UG Degree (Honours with Research), as the case may be. 5.1. COMPUTATION OF SGPA AND CGPA The following method shall be used to compute the Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA):

The SGPA equals the product of the number of credits (Ci) with the grade points (Gi) scored by a student in each course in a semester, summed over all the courses taken by a student in the semester, and then divided by the total number of credits of all the courses taken by the student in the semester, i.e. SGPA (Si) = Σi (Ci x Gi) / Σi (Ci) where Ci is the number of credits of the i th course and Gi is the grade point scored by the student in the i th course in the given semester. Credit Point of a course is the value obtained by multiplying the credit (Ci) of the course by the grade point (Gi) of the course.

ILLUSTRATION – COMPUTATION OF SGPA The Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) of the student shall be calculated at the end of a programme. The CGPA of a student determines the overall academic level of the student in a programme and is the criterion for ranking the students. CGPA for the three-year programme in CUFYUGP shall be calculated by the following formula. CGPA for the four-year programme in CUFYUGP shall be calculated by the following formula. The SGPA and CGPA shall be rounded off to three decimal points and reported in the transcripts.

Based on the above letter grades, grade points, SGPA and CGPA, the University shall issue the transcript for each semester and a consolidated transcript indicating the performance in all semesters.
