GPA Hours vs Earned Hours. GPA hours and earned hours refer to the grade point system followed in some high schools and colleges. âGPAâ stands for âgrade point average.â âEarned pointsâ refer to the credits completed by a student successfully. When we say âsuccessfully,â it means a âDâ or higher grade acquired. The credit given to the students is based on the quality of the work and the completion of the work.
In most Universities in the United States, the average number of credit hours required to complete a masterâs degree program ranges from about 35 to 45 credit hours. Each course may be assessed with a value of 3-4 credit hours depending on the Universityâs chosen credit-hour system.
