International GPA Calculator
Convert grades and calculate GPA for international systems quickly with our free International GPA Calculator. Supports multiple grading scales.
International GPA Calculator
The International GPA Calculator converts grades from various countries into the standard GPA system (4.0 or 5.0 scale), helping students understand how their grades translate for admissions, scholarships, or employment.
Understanding the Concept: How Does It Work?
The calculator maps grades from international systems to a U.S. GPA or another desired scale. The process includes:
- Identifying the Grading Scale: Percentage, letter grades, classifications, or ECTS.
- Converting Grades to GPA: Using a conversion table, e.g., 90-100% → 4.0, 80-89% → 3.0-3.9.
- Weighted GPA Calculation: GPA = \( \frac{\sum (\text{Grade Value} \times \text{Credits})}{\sum \text{Credits}} \)
Example Calculation: International GPA Conversion
A student from India applies to a U.S. university. Grades:
| Course | Percentage (India) | U.S. Equivalent GPA |
|---|---|---|
| Math | 85% | 3.7 |
| Science | 78% | 3.0 |
| English | 90% | 4.0 |
| History | 82% | 3.3 |
(3.7×3) + (3.0×3) + (4.0×3) + (3.3×3) = 11.1 + 9 + 12 + 9.9 = 42
Step 2: Divide by Total Credits
\( GPA = \frac{42}{12} = 3.5 \)
