  4. Your weighted GPA updates instantly at the top, with total credit hours and grade points below.

Common use cases

  • Semester GPA. Enter this term's courses to see your semester GPA before official grades post.
  • Cumulative GPA planning. Add all your courses across terms to estimate your overall GPA and see where you stand.
  • What-if scenarios. Try different grades on upcoming courses to see what you'd need to reach a target GPA.
  • Scholarship and honors checks. Confirm whether you're on track for a GPA cutoff required by a scholarship, honors program or graduate school.

Tips

  • GPA is weighted by credit hours, so a high grade in a 4-credit course moves your GPA more than the same grade in a 1-credit course.
  • This uses the standard US 4.0 scale (A = 4.0 down to F = 0). Some schools use plus/minus values that vary slightly — check your registrar.
  • To find the grades you need next term, add hypothetical future courses and adjust until you hit your target.
  • Retaking a failed course can raise your GPA if your school replaces the old grade — check your institution's policy.

Troubleshooting

My school uses a different scale.
This tool uses the common 4.0 scale with standard plus/minus points. If your school assigns different point values (e.g. A+ = 4.3), your official GPA may differ slightly.
How do I handle pass/fail courses?
Pass/fail courses usually don't count toward GPA. Simply leave them out of the list, or remove that row.

Frequently asked questions

How is GPA calculated?
Each course's grade points (letter grade value × credit hours) are summed, then divided by total credit hours. That gives a credit-weighted average — your GPA.
What scale does this use?
The standard US 4.0 scale: A = 4.0, A− = 3.7, B+ = 3.3, B = 3.0, and so on down to F = 0. Grades are weighted by credit hours.
What's the difference between weighted and unweighted GPA?
This calculates a credit-weighted GPA (bigger courses count more). Some high schools add extra points for honors/AP courses — that's a different kind of weighting this tool doesn't apply.
Can I calculate my cumulative GPA?
Yes. Add every course from every term into the list and the result is your cumulative GPA across all of them.
Is my grade information private?
