Grading policies differ by university, department, and academic year. Use your institution's official calculator or transcript office for anything that counts (transfer credit, scholarships, honors).

How this works

Convert each letter grade to its grade point value (A = 4.0, A− = 3.7, B+ = 3.3, and so on), multiply by the credit hours the course carries, sum those quality points, then divide by the total credits. This is a single-term GPA — add multiple terms with the cumulative GPA calculator.

Formula

GPA = Σ(letter grade points × credits) ÷ Σ(credits)

Example

A(3) + B+(4) + C(3) = 4.0×3 + 3.3×4 + 2.0×3 = 31.2 quality points ÷ 10 credits = 3.12 GPA

Terminology

GPA: Grade Point Average for a single term, computed from letter grades and credit hours.
CGPA: Cumulative GPA — a credit-weighted average of every semester you've completed.
