How it works: Weighted GPA = sum of (grade points × credits) ÷ total credits. Uses the standard 4.0 scale where A/A+ = 4.0, A− = 3.7, B+ = 3.3, B = 3.0 … F = 0.0. Courses with missing or zero credits are excluded from the calculation.

FAQ
How is GPA calculated on a 4.0 scale?+

Weighted GPA = sum of (grade points × credit hours) divided by total credit hours. For example, an A (4.0) in a 3-credit course contributes 12 quality points. Divide total quality points by total credits to get your GPA.

What grade point values does this calculator use?+

It uses the standard U.S. scale: A/A+ = 4.0, A− = 3.7, B+ = 3.3, B = 3.0, B− = 2.7, C+ = 2.3, C = 2.0, C− = 1.7, D+ = 1.3, D = 1.0, D− = 0.7, F = 0.0.

Can I calculate GPA for just one semester?+

Yes — simply enter only the courses from that semester. The calculator computes a weighted average across whatever courses you add, whether that is one semester, one year, or your entire college career.

What GPA do I need for Dean's List or Latin honors?+

Requirements vary by institution, but common benchmarks are: Dean's List ≥ 3.0, Cum Laude ≥ 3.5, Magna Cum Laude ≥ 3.7, and Summa Cum Laude ≥ 3.9. The calculator highlights which honors you qualify for based on your current GPA.
