en Base 10 de los créditos superados:
Is okay to translate as in base 10 of the credits that she passed? or probably the credits she obtained?
Here is the full paragraph for your review:
Calificación global media en Base 10 de los créditos superados: 8,23

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Hola, yugoslavia: Su propuesta de incluir 'obtained' sería muy válida también.
Credits 'earned' or 'obtained' both sound very natural.
Suerte y saludos :-)

average grade of the credits passed out of 10:8.23
no need to include 'global'. Why? Because the determination of an average grade includes all the grades.

One can also say 'average grade of the credits passed: 8.23 out of 10'

It just occurred to me that taking credits beyond those required is called overcrediting.

: I was referring to the source text's meaning, and trying to make sense of it. I think 'superado' means 'earned.' >Would including a specific average for 'courses beyond the required ones' be common enough to warrant such a high degree of confidence?

That depends on the university. In my MS program, they include overcredited courses (new term for me, ha!) towards the overall GPA. But I can tell you that superar would be exceeding beyond that required. See the above links.
