GPA Calculator

Weighted GPA on a 4.0 scale.

How this calculator works

Weighted average of grade points by credit hours. Enter each course as 'grade,credits' — one per line — and the tool converts grades to standard 4.0-scale points.

A+ = 4.0, A = 4.0, A− = 3.7, B+ = 3.3, B = 3.0, B− = 2.7, and so on.

Because GPA is a credit-weighted average, a 4-credit A pulls your overall GPA up more than a 1-credit A does — this is why dropping or adding a course can shift your GPA by very different amounts depending on its credit weight.

Example

For A,3 + B+,4 + A−,3 + B,3: GPA = 3.485 on 13 total credits.

Frequently asked questions

Does my school use +/− grades?

US colleges are split; K-12 rarely uses them. Adjust rows to match your school's system.

How is a weighted GPA different?

Weighted GPAs give bonus points for honors/AP courses. This tool computes unweighted 4.0 GPA.

How do I convert my GPA to a percentage?

Rough conversion: US 4.0 ≈ 90–100%. Precise mapping depends on the school.

Does a failing grade still count toward my GPA?

Yes, typically as 0.0 points for that course's credits — which is why a single F can drag down an otherwise strong GPA more than people expect, especially in a light course load.
