How to use the GPA Calculator

  1. Enter each course name (optional) and its credit hours.
  2. Choose the letter grade you received.
  3. Add more rows for all courses in the semester.
  4. Click Calculate to see your GPA out of 4.0 and total credits.

Formula used

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

Grade points used: A 4.0, A− 3.7, B+ 3.3, B 3.0, B− 2.7, C+ 2.3, C 2.0, D 1.0, F 0.0.

Worked example

Four courses

4 credits × A (4.0) = 16.0

3 credits × B+ (3.3) = 9.9

3 credits × A− (3.7) = 11.1

2 credits × B (3.0) = 6.0

GPA = 43.0 ÷ 12 = 3.58

Weighted vs unweighted GPA

An unweighted GPA treats every course on the same 4.0 scale. Some high schools use a weighted GPA where honours or AP courses get an extra point (5.0 for an A). Colleges usually recalculate GPA in their own way, so report the scale your school uses.

Tips for accurate results

  • Courses with more credits affect GPA more, so prioritise them.
  • Pass/fail courses usually do not count towards GPA.
  • For Indian 10-point grading, use the CGPA calculator instead.
