Collegiate GPA Calculator

One field for everything: "A:3, B+:4, C:3" (grade then credit hours), or the general weighted-average form "90, 3, 80, 2" where grade and weight alternate. Leave blank to use the separate grade and credit fields below.
Comma-separated letter grades, or numeric grade points.
Credit hours (units) for each course, in the same order. Leave blank to weight every course equally.
Your cumulative GPA so far. Leave blank if you only want this term.
Optional. Set it to your school's good-standing threshold (often 2.0) or the GPA you are aiming for, and the engine reports whether you are there and how many more credits at the top grade it would take.

How this is worked out

7 steps
  1. Scale: Unweighted 4.0 scale with plus/minus.
  2. A -> 4 points x 3 credits = 12
  3. B+ -> 3.3 points x 4 credits = 13.2
  4. B -> 3 points x 3 credits = 9
  5. C+ -> 2.3 points x 3 credits = 6.9
  6. Quality points = 41.1; credit hours = 13.
  7. GPA = 41.1 / 13 = 3.161538
