GPA Calculator

How to use the GPA Calculator

1. Add one row per course and pick the letter grade you earned or expect.
2. Enter each course's credit hours. Leave the name blank if you like.
3. To get your overall GPA, enter your current cumulative GPA and the credits you'd already completed before this semester.

How it's calculated

Each letter grade is worth a number of grade points (A = 4.0, A− = 3.7, B+ = 3.3, B = 3.0 and so on down to F = 0). Each course's points are weighted by its credits:

Cumulative GPA combines your previous GPA and credits with this semester's: (old GPA × old credits + this semester's grade points) ÷ (old credits + this semester's credits).

Frequently asked questions

Does an A+ count as 4.3?
At most U.S. schools an A+ is capped at 4.0, which is what this calculator uses. Some schools award 4.3. Check your school's policy if that applies to you.

Do pass/fail classes count?
Usually not. Pass/fail courses typically add credits toward graduation but don't affect GPA, so leave them out.

What about weighted (honors/AP) GPA?
This calculator gives an unweighted GPA on the 4.0 scale. Weighting rules for honors and AP courses vary by school.
