Calculate semester and cumulative GPA.

Cumulative GPA

Uses the common 4.0 scale (A = 4.0, A- = 3.7, B+ = 3.3 and so on). Schools differ, so check how yours treats A+ and weighted courses.

About this gpa calculator

Grade point average converts your letter grades into numbers so schools can compare performance. Each course grade is turned into grade points on a 4.0 scale, multiplied by the course credits, added together and divided by total credits. Some high schools add extra points for honors or AP and IB classes, so this tool offers an optional weighting. Enter your previous cumulative GPA and credits to see how this term changes your overall average.

How to use it

  1. Add each course with its credits and grade.
  2. Choose a weighting if your school uses one.
  3. Optionally add your current GPA and credits to see the cumulative GPA.

Tips and good to know

To plan ahead, enter your expected grades for the next term and see how your cumulative GPA would change. Weighted GPA rules vary: some schools give extra points for honors and AP classes and others do not. Check your school's grading policy before using the result for applications.
