1. Make sure u cal. Cgpa not gpa. I.e all points frm yr1 to final yr divided by total units. Taking co courses into consederation with ur sch rules on it. 2. If u are 100% sure om ur claim then start with ur department and wright letter to ur tru ur dept. to exam m record, faculty and zenity. 3. If they are trying to play u just get a lawyer to take it up with them ds is because if u are not careful it may affect ur chance to do d MBA cos dr is contradivtion already. 1 Like |

When it happened to me, I requested for my Statement of Result. Through that the school authority discovered the error, and reissued the correct certificate. 1 Like |

I wonder what the victim was doing all the while. While in school, I personally calculated my GPA every semester. I even had to project what scores I needed to make in the next semester up till my final year. I wasn't going to let any errors rob me of my sweat.This is a lesson for all students to learn from. I believe the most diligent students who will come out tops, will definitely do a similar thing to what I did. Anyway, that is past. I think the error is still resolvable since it is not the victim's fault. So let him pick himself up and go back to the school for correction. I will advise in addition that he gets a lawyer to support him in this case. He will definitely win the case. |

This is a case of inefficiency n negligence on the part of the school management, which might warrant you taking legal actions on the management and academic board of the school. On the other hand in my own opinion, I will advice you take it up with the school for the result to be effected, because if reverse was the case the school senate will not hesitate to withdraw you 2.1 n issue your 2.2 and render an hypocritic apology with it. Am a graduate of AAU and dis kind of errors r nt new to graduates from there as there is run a mannual system of result computation. |

To all those saying go to the school, i'm sorry because I don't think anything can be done. While the Op was in final year (2nd semester), I'm sure your course adviser cane to your class or contact each person to come and verify their CGPA to correct any error. Once you verify, there is a space where u signed showing that you affirm the CGPA. That is what the school can use against you if you decide to go legal. A friend of mine back then didn't check on time, they computed a carry over for him, before he could rectify it, he was unable to go to service with us. You can try your luck sha, may God help you. It's a lesson to those in school to always contact their course adviser, it will save a lot of stress. Sometimes he might even advise you not to take some stubborn lecturers electives. |

Well, is not late but the first step is to get the computation method from that university. U can then compute yours and attach the standard computation method from the uni and write a letter indicating an error in result computation and forward to the deputy registrar exams and records. You take it up from there. |

Speak to a lawyer and possibly have him/her write the school and take it up from there. Advice to others If you are still a student ensure you have a copy of your sessional results and calculate your GPA yourself and if it does tally with the final GPA, you can make a strong case. If the op had done this, I'm sure he would have realized this soon enough. There's a story of a guy here who was wrongly classified as 2.2 but based on his own calculation, itbwas 2.1, with the evidence he had, he made a strong case and it was rectified. |

Go for it, it can be corrected. If they try anything stupid, get the lawyers involved and even ask for compensation due to juicy jobs u might have lost as a result of the grade. |
