About CGPA to GPA Calculator
This CGPA to GPA page explains how the two relate and gives a US 4.0 estimate of a CGPA from another scale. It is free, needs no sign-up and runs in your browser, so nothing you enter is uploaded.
GPA and CGPA use the same formula over different sets of courses. GPA covers one term or any set of courses you choose, and CGPA covers everything completed so far. If you want a GPA for one semester, enter only that semester courses with Add previous CGPA switched off. If you want the cumulative figure, switch it on or add every course.
To compare across scales the result shows a US 4.0 estimate for scales that are not already on 4.0: the CGPA divided by the scale maximum times 4. That is a simple proportion. Evaluators often convert course by course, and the UGC and US points for the same letter are not the same, so the estimate is a guide.
How to use CGPA to GPA Calculator
- Choose your grading scale from the list. The table of letters and points for that scale is used for every course row. Pick Custom scale if your university uses its own table.
- Enter each course with its credit hours and grade. Choose a letter from the list, or pick Type point to enter a grade point yourself.
- Add or remove rows until the list matches your semester. Credits can be decimals such as 1.5.
- To get a cumulative result, switch on Add previous CGPA and enter your CGPA so far and the credits it covers. The new CGPA weights both by credit.
- Read the term GPA, the cumulative CGPA, the degree class where the scale has one, and the percentage, German grade and US 4.0 estimate.
- Use the target planner to enter the CGPA you want and the credits you have left. It shows the average you need.
Features
- Credit-weighted CGPA that updates on every keystroke, with no submit button.
- Nine scale options: Bangladesh UGC 4.00, a common private-university scale, US 4.0, US 4.3, India 10-point, ECTS, UK percentage, Bangladesh SSC/HSC 5.00 and a custom scale.
- A custom scale editor for the letters, points, top grade and lowest pass of your own university.
- Previous CGPA and completed credits, so a new semester updates your cumulative result.
- Degree class where the scale defines one, such as First, Second and Third class on the UGC scale, Latin honors on US 4.0, or UK honours bands.
- CGPA to percentage with the formula that fits the scale: grade band, linear, CBSE 9.5, times 10, or your own multiplier.
- Percentage to CGPA, the reverse conversion, with the same formula choices.
- German grade by the modified Bavarian formula, with three rounding modes: cut after one decimal, round to one decimal, or nearest German grade step.
- A US 4.0 estimate for scales that are not already 4.0, and a target CGPA planner.
Worked examples
India 10-point CGPA 8.0 gives US 4.0 estimate 3.20
Bangladesh UGC CGPA 3.50 gives US 4.0 estimate 3.50
The UGC scale already has a 4.00 maximum, so the proportion leaves the number unchanged.
Privacy: how it works
- Courses, credits and grades are handled by code running in your browser tab. Nothing is sent to Ulkaa or anyone else, and nothing is saved: closing the tab clears what you typed.
Tips
- Use the credit hours from your transcript, not the number of courses. A 1-credit lab counts a third as much as a 3-credit lecture.
- To enter a whole semester you only know as a GPA, add one row with that semester credits and choose Type point for its grade point.
- For a conversion to percentage, check which formula your university or the receiving organisation accepts before you quote the number.
