Supported Grading Systems

GPAWise supports the two grading systems used by universities worldwide. Each university stores its own official scheme, so the calculator applies the correct cut-offs, scale maximum, and grade-point values without any manual conversion on your end.

4.0 Letter-Grade Scale

Used by most US universities and many international institutions. Each letter grade maps to a fixed grade-point value, with plus and minus subdivisions for finer granularity. Some schools omit pluses/minuses, and a handful use 4.3 or 4.5 as the maximum — all stored per university.

A / A+4.0
A−3.7
B+3.3
B3.0
B−2.7
C+ / C / C−2.3 / 2.0 / 1.7
D1.0
F0.0

Percentage-Based Scale

Used widely across South Asia, the UK, and parts of Europe and Africa. Courses are graded by marks out of 100, mapped to letter equivalents and grade-point values that vary by university. Honours classifications, distinction thresholds, and minimum passing marks are institution-specific.

80–100%A / Distinction
70–79%B+ / First class
60–69%B / Upper second
50–59%C / Lower second
40–49%D / Pass
Below 40%F / Fail

Cut-offs are illustrative — your university's exact thresholds are applied when you use its calculator.

How is GPA calculated?

Whichever scale your university uses, the formula is the same: GPA = (Σ grade-point × credits) ÷ Σ credits. Each course's grade-point value is multiplied by its credit hours, the weighted points are summed, and the total is divided by the total credit hours attempted. Courses with more credits move your GPA more — a B in a 4-credit class affects your average more than a B in a 1-credit class. GPAWise applies your university's official grade-point values, so a percentage-based 78% and a letter-based B+ will produce exactly the GPA your transcript expects.

— Common questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What is GPA and how is it calculated?
GPA (Grade Point Average) is a weighted average of your course grades. To calculate it, multiply each course's grade-point value by its credit hours, sum those weighted points, then divide by the total credit hours attempted. GPAWise applies your university's official grading scheme so the result matches what your transcript will show.
Which grading systems does GPAWise support?
Both of the systems used worldwide: 4.0 letter-grade scales (A=4.0, B=3.0, C=2.0, …) used by US and many international universities, and percentage-based scales (where courses are graded out of 100) used widely in South Asia, the UK, and parts of Europe. Each university's exact scheme — including custom cut-offs, plus/minus subdivisions, and scales up to 5.0 or 10.0 — is stored individually so no manual conversion is needed.
Which countries are covered?
GPAWise currently has GPA calculators for 1304 universities across 9 countries, including United States, Canada, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, and Bangladesh. New universities are added regularly — if yours isn't listed, you can submit it via the Add University page.
Is GPAWise free? Do I need to sign up?
Yes — GPAWise is completely free, with no signup, no paywall, and no ads. Your inputs stay in your browser and are never sent to a server unless you choose to submit feedback.
How accurate is GPAWise compared to my official transcript?
For the courses and credits you enter, the calculator applies your university's official grading scheme, so the result matches what your transcript shows. Differences usually come from special credits (audit, withdraw, transfer credits) or rounding rules your registrar may apply differently — treat the result as a planning estimate, not an official record.
What's the difference between GPA, SGPA, and CGPA?
SGPA (Semester GPA) covers a single semester's courses. CGPA (Cumulative GPA) averages every completed semester, weighted by credit hours. "GPA" is often used to mean either, depending on context. GPAWise computes either: enter just the current semester for SGPA, or every completed course for CGPA.
