How GPA Is Calculated

GPA (Grade Point Average) is calculated by multiplying the grade points for each course by its credit hours, summing those products (called quality points), and dividing by the total credit hours. Most US schools use a 4.0 scale: A = 4.0, B = 3.0, C = 2.0, D = 1.0, F = 0.0, with plus/minus grades in between.

Weighted vs. Unweighted GPA

This calculator uses a weighted GPA, meaning courses with more credit hours have a greater impact on your overall GPA than single-credit courses. An unweighted GPA treats every course equally regardless of credits. Most colleges report and evaluate weighted GPA.
