Frequently asked questions
How is GPA calculated?
Multiply each course's grade points by its credit hours, add them up, and divide by the total credit hours. A (4.0) in a 3-credit class and B (3.0) in a 4-credit class: (12 + 12) ÷ 7 = 3.43.
Is A+ worth 4.3?
At most U.S. colleges an A+ is capped at 4.0, which this calculator uses. Some schools give 4.3; choose the scale your school uses below.
How do I calculate cumulative GPA?
Enter your previous cumulative GPA and the total credits it covers. The calculator weights old and new credits together.
What about weighted high school GPA (honors, AP)?
Many high schools add 0.5 for honors and 1.0 for AP/IB classes, but rules vary. Tick 'AP/Honors' on a course to add the bonus you choose.
