🔹 Is my overall grade point average (GPA) affected by my Co-op work term grade 🔹 Does Co-op affect my GPA 🔹 Will my Co-op grade show up on my transcript 🔹 Is Co-op pass/fail or graded 🔹 Do Co-op marks count toward my CGPA

Summary

Co-op work terms are graded on a Pass/Fail basis and do not affect your CGPA. The grade is based on successful completion of work term assignments. While Co-op grades appear on your transcript, they are excluded from GPA calculations. This ensures academic performance is evaluated separately from experiential learning.

Body

No — your Co-op work term grade does not affect your GPA.

Here’s how it works:

  • 📝 You’ll receive a Pass or Fail grade for each Co-op work term

  • ✅ A Pass is awarded when you successfully complete all required assignments

  • 📄 The grade appears on your transcript but is not included in your CGPA

This system keeps your academic GPA separate from your experiential learning, while still recognizing your Co-op achievements.

📘 Helpful Definitions:

  • CGPA (Cumulative Grade Point Average): Your overall academic average across all graded courses

  • Pass/Fail grade: A binary grade that does not carry grade points

  • Transcript: Your official academic record, including Co-op participation

📝 Special Notes:

  • You must complete all required assignments to receive a Pass

  • Co-op grades are tracked by the Co-op Office and appear on your transcript

  • International students should confirm how Co-op grading affects visa or academic reporting requirements
