3. Progress Reports

The academic progress of students in the Faculty of Law is determined by the student obtaining a satisfactory grade point average (GPA). GPA is the level of the student’s learning success for the course having been taken and indicated through a number taken to the second decimal. GPA is divided into two categories: Semester GPA (IPK Semester) and Cumulative GPA (IPK Kumulatif).

  • Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA)

Semester grade point average is a figure referring to the average academic achievement by a student in one semester. The calculation of SGPA is described as follow.

  • Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA)

Cumulative grade point average is a figure referring to the student’s average academic accomplishment in all taken semesters, with the formula:

 

The students’ progress in teaching and learning process shall periodically be reported to both students and their parents. The students’ examinations’ results will be mailed to the parents, to give information about their children’ study progress as a form of faculty accountability to society who need faculty educational service.

The student can arrange the credits every semester that decided by their achievement of Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA) and Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) from the previous semester. System (generated by Unisys) will calculate the available amount of credits that should be taken for students for each semester. Further information about the calculation system, please contact the division of academic officer.
