GPA Calculator (4.0 Scale) – Calculate Semester & Cumulative GPA
Use this GPA Calculator to calculate semester GPA, cumulative GPA, and total grade points using course grades and credit hours. Works for school, college, and university students.
How it works
Each letter grade maps to a point value on the 4.0 scale. Each course contributes grade points equal to its point value multiplied by its credit hours. Your GPA is the sum of grade points divided by the sum of credit hours.
GPA = Total Grade Points ÷ Total Credit HoursExample calculation
Three courses: Mathematics (A, 4 credits), Science (B, 3 credits), English (A, 3 credits).
Mathematics (A = 4.0) × 4 = 16
Science (B = 3.0) × 3 = 9
English (A = 4.0) × 3 = 12
Total grade points = 37 (across 10 credits)
GPA = 37 ÷ 10 = 3.70GPA scale reference chart
