GPA Calculator

Calculate your grade point average from a list of courses, grades, and credit hours.

🔒 Processed on your device

GPA isn't a simple average of your grades — a 4-credit A and a 1-credit A don't count equally, since GPA is weighted by credit hours. This takes a course list and computes the properly credit-weighted result, along with a line-by-line breakdown so you can see exactly how each course contributed.

Example: A semester of Calculus I (A, 4 credits), English Composition (B+, 3 credits), Chemistry (A-, 4 credits), and Physical Education (B, 1 credit) works out to a 3.642 GPA — not a flat average of the four grade points, because the 1-credit PE class pulls far less weight than the two 4-credit courses.

How it works

  1. Pick a 4.0 grade scale — with or without +/- grades
  2. List your courses, one per line, as name, grade, credits
  3. Your weighted GPA appears instantly, calculated on your device, with a per-course breakdown

Frequently asked questions

How is GPA calculated?

Each grade is converted to grade points (A = 4.0, B = 3.0, and so on), multiplied by that course's credit hours, summed across all courses, then divided by the total credit hours — a credit-weighted average, not a plain average of the grade points.

Will this match my school's official GPA?

It uses the standard 4.0 scale (with or without +/- grades), which most US institutions follow — but some schools use a different scale (a 4.3 for A+, or a 5.0 scale for honors courses), so treat this as a close estimate and confirm against your school's own grading policy for anything official.
