GPA Calculator

Work out a GPA from each course’s credits and grade, using letter grades on a common 4.0 scale or grade points on your institution’s own scale. Enter term GPAs instead of courses to get a CGPA.

How do I calculate my GPA?

Multiply each course’s grade points by its credits, add the results, and divide by the total credits. An A (4.0) in a 3-credit course, a B+ (3.3) in a 4-credit course and a C (2.0) in a 2-credit course give 29.2 quality points over 9 credits, a GPA of 3.24. Grading scales vary by institution.

  1. Choose letter grades on the 4.0 scale, or grade points if your institution uses another scale, such as 5 or 10.
  2. For each course, enter the credits and the grade. Add rows as needed; empty rows are ignored.
  3. Read your GPA with the total credits and quality points. For a CGPA, enter each term’s GPA and credits instead of courses.

Formulas & Methods

Quality points for a course

grade points × credits

Example: B+ (3.3) × 4 credits = 13.2

GPA

total quality points ÷ total credits

Example: (12 + 13.2 + 4) ÷ 9 = 3.24

CGPA

Σ(term GPA × term credits) ÷ Σ term credits

Example: (3.5 × 18 + 3.8 × 17 + 3.2 × 16) ÷ 51 = 3.51

Key features

  • Letter grades or grade points

    Use the 4.0 letter table, or type grade points on your own scale and set its maximum, so nothing is forced onto one country’s system.

  • GPA and CGPA

    The same credit-weighted calculation works for courses in a term or for terms across a degree.

  • Credits and quality points shown

    See the totals behind the result, so you can check it against your transcript.

The 4.0 letter-grade table used here

Letter grades use a widely used US table. Some schools give A+ 4.33, leave out minus grades or round differently, and many countries use other scales entirely, such as 5-point or 10-point systems. If your institution publishes its own conversion, choose “Grade points” and enter its values.

  • A+ and A: 4.0
  • A−: 3.7 · B+: 3.3 · B: 3.0 · B−: 2.7
  • C+: 2.3 · C: 2.0 · C−: 1.7
  • D+: 1.3 · D: 1.0 · D−: 0.7 · F: 0

Frequently Asked Questions

Do pass/fail courses count towards a GPA?

Usually not: a pass carries credits but no grade points. Leave such courses out, unless your institution’s rules say otherwise.

Can I convert a GPA to a percentage?

Only with your institution’s own formula. Conversions such as multiplying a 10-point CGPA by 9.5 are rules set by specific boards and universities, not general maths, so check the one that applies to you.

Why is my official GPA slightly different?

Institutions may round each course, truncate rather than round the final figure, weight honours courses or exclude repeated courses. This calculator rounds only the displayed result to two decimals.
