GPA Calculator

Add a row per course. The course name is optional; the grade and credit hours are what count.

Choose the letter grade from A+ down to F for each course.

Type the credit hours for the course, such as 3 or 4. Half credits are fine.

The weighted GPA updates as you type, with your total credit hours and quality points.

A grade point average is a weighted average of your grades. Each letter grade is worth a number of points on the 4.0 scale, you multiply that by the course credit hours to get quality points, add the quality points across all courses, and divide by the total credit hours. A higher-credit course therefore moves your GPA more than a one-credit course with the same grade.

This tool uses the standard unweighted 4.0 scale: A and A+ are 4.0, A- is 3.7, B+ is 3.3, B is 3.0, B- is 2.7, C+ is 2.3, C is 2.0, C- is 1.7, D+ is 1.3, D is 1.0, D- is 0.7, and F is 0.0. The full table is shown below.

Here A+ is capped at 4.0, which is the most common convention at US schools. Some schools do award 4.3 for an A+ on an unweighted scale, and weighted scales for honors or AP courses can go higher. Check your school policy, since the points per grade are what differ between systems.

Pass or fail courses and withdrawals usually do not carry grade points, so they do not change your GPA even though they may count toward credits earned. In this tool, enter only the letter-graded courses. A row whose grade is not a recognized letter is simply left out of the GPA.

No. The whole calculation runs in your browser with plain JavaScript. Nothing you type is sent to a server, so the calculator keeps working the same way even after the page has loaded and you go offline.
