French term or phrase: Cr-MOY
Hi,
I am currently working on a certified translation of a Canadian university transcript for Australia.

I have five columns: "créd: 15.00 Cr-MOY: 18.00 Pts: 30.60 MOY: 1.70"

I found on their website "crédits pour moyenne"

This is for Australia.

Thanks

Explanation:
You can see the reference being made on the McGill University website (in English and French):

https://www.mcgill.ca/continuingstudies/grades-and-gpa

https://www.mcgill.ca/continuingstudies/fr/notes-et-moyenne-...

The moyenne is the grade point average, whereas the moyenne cumulative is the cumulative grade point average.

On the Université de Moncton website https://www.umoncton.ca/umcm-orientationtravail/node/6 you can see how the GPA is calculated by inputting the GPA credits and the grade points.

An explanation on the McGill site indicates how the calculation is done:

"Your CGPA is calculated by dividing the sum of the course credit, times the grade points by the total course GPA credits. The result is not rounded up to the nearest decimal point.
GPA credits are the credits of courses with grades that are assigned grade points."

Therefore, your translation of the columns would be as follows:

"credits: 15.00, grade point average credits: 18.00, grade points: 30.60, grade point average: 1.70"
