Earlier GPA, for a cumulative figure
What GPA do I need?
Standard US 4.0 scale. Schools differ in scales, weights and rounding, so this is an estimate; your transcript is the official figure.
How to calculate your GPA
- Enter each course, its letter grade and its credits.
- Tick Weighted GPA to add honors or AP and IB points, and enter an earlier GPA for a cumulative figure.
- Read your GPA on the gauge, and the grade points for each course below it.
Questions
How is GPA calculated?
Multiply each course’s grade points by its credits, add those up, and divide by the total credits. An A (4.0) in a 3-credit course is 12 quality points, and a B+ (3.3) in a 4-credit course is 13.2. Together that is 25.2 over 7 credits, a GPA of 3.60.
What do the letter grades mean on the 4.0 scale?
A is 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 and F 0. Some schools give A+ 4.3 instead of 4.0, and the tool has an option for that.
How do weighted GPAs work?
Schools differ. This tool adds 0.5 points to an honors course and 1.0 to an AP or IB course, but not to an F, and the gauge then runs to 5.0. Check your school’s rules for its own weights.
Is my school’s GPA the same as this?
Not always. Your school sets the scale, the weights and how credits count, and the transcript is the official figure. Use this tool as an estimate, and ask the registrar if you need the exact number.
