Average grade awarded for academic year, 1917-1948. Estimated from percent grade awarded data for undergraduate classes for 1986-1992. Estimated for undergraduates from total student numbers for 1968-1982 by calibrating to the post 1986 data for undergraduate and graduate classes and removing the graduate student component. 2005 GPA, All-Greek students only. Note: At Johns Hopkins and Northwestern, All-Greek GPAs were almost identical to undergraduate GPAs in 2006 and 2007, as were All-Greek GPAs at Washington University in 2007 and 2008.
