Calculate a credit-weighted GPA

GPA calculation formula

Quality points for a course = course credits x grade points. GPA = total quality points / total attempted credits.

Credit weighting

Gives higher-credit courses proportionally more influence.

Quality-point total

Shows the numerator used in the GPA calculation.

Editable course rows

Lets you omit unused rows by entering zero credits.

How to calculate a GPA

A credit-weighted GPA gives larger courses more influence than smaller courses. For each class, multiply its attempted credits by the grade-point value assigned to the earned grade. Add those quality points, then divide by the total attempted credits included in the calculation.

This page provides common 4.0-scale grade-point choices for a quick estimate. Schools vary in whether they use plus and minus grades, repeat rules, withdrawals, pass/fail courses, transfer work, honors weighting, or different grade scales. Adjust the chosen point values only when they match the policy you are trying to estimate.

A calculated term GPA may differ from an official GPA because institutions apply their own catalog and transcript rules. Verify the credits and grade-point table against your program, especially before relying on a result for eligibility, graduation, scholarships, financial aid, or academic standing.

Frequently asked questions

How is GPA calculated?

Multiply each course’s credits by its grade points, add the quality points, then divide by total credits.

Is this cumulative GPA?

It can estimate a group of courses you enter, but a cumulative GPA may need additional transcript rules.

Do all schools use a 4.0 scale?

No. Confirm the scale and treatment of plus, minus, weighted, repeated, and pass/fail grades.

Why is my official GPA different?

Institutions may exclude courses or apply catalog-specific rounding and repeat policies.
