Term GPA is the grade point average for a single term or semester. It is calculated by dividing the total number of grade points earned by the total number of credit hours attempted.
Cumulative GPA is the grade point average for all terms or semesters that a student has completed. It is calculated by dividing the total number of grade points earned by the total number of credit hours attempted.
The main difference between term GPA and cumulative GPA is the time frame that they cover. Term GPA only includes the courses that a student has taken in a single term, while cumulative GPA includes all of the courses that a student has taken throughout their academic career.
Cumulative GPA is often considered to be a more important measure of a student's academic performance, as it provides a more complete picture of their academic achievements.
