GPA calculator
Weighted GPA from your course credits and grade points.
Quick answer
Enter the credits and grade points (for example A = 4.0) for each course. Five courses with 15 credits and 53.7 grade-point credits give a GPA of 3.58.
GPA
3.58
- Total credits
- 15.0
- Total grade points earned
- 53.7
A common 4.0 scale is A = 4.0, Aโ = 3.7, B+ = 3.3, B = 3.0, Bโ = 2.7, C = 2.0, D = 1.0, F = 0. Use the scale your school publishes. Leave unused courses at 0 credits.
How it works
A course with more credits counts for more of your GPA. Multiply each grade point by its credits, add up, and divide by the total credits.
Enter 0 credits for rows you do not use.
Scales differ between schools, so use your own schoolโs grade point table.
The formula
- GPA = sum of (credits ร grade points) รท total credits
A worked example
Credits and grade points 3 ร 4.0, 4 ร 3.7, 3 ร 3.0, 3 ร 3.3, 2 ร 4.0: points = 12 + 14.8 + 9 + 9.9 + 8 = 53.7 over 15 credits, so GPA = 3.58.
Common questions
What is a weighted GPA?
A GPA where each course counts in proportion to its credits.
What GPA do I need?
It depends on the school or job. Check the requirement you are aiming for.
Can I use a 10-point scale?
Yes. Enter the grade points on your own scale and the maths is the same.
How do I calculate a cumulative GPA?
Add the courses from all semesters as rows (or total up the credits and points) and divide.
