GPA Calculator
What’s Your GPA? Find Out in 10 Seconds Flat.
You’ve gotten your grades back. Maybe you aced a few classes, maybe one was a bit rough. Now you’re staring at them, trying to do mental math and wondering, “Okay, but what does this all add up to?”
Manually calculating your GPA is a pain. You have to remember point values, multiply by credit hours, add it all up… it’s easy to mess up, and let’s be honest, you’ve got enough on your plate.
Skip the stress and the spreadsheets. Our GPA Calculator does the annoying math for you. Plug in your grades, and get your exact GPA instantly. No confusion, no mistakes—just a clear number so you know exactly where you stand.
GPA Explained (Without the Boring Lecture)
GPA stands for Grade Point Average. It’s a single number that sums up your academic performance, usually on a scale from 0.0 to 4.0.
Here’s the basic idea:
- An A is awesome and worth 4.0 points
- A B is good and worth 3.0 points
- A C is average and worth 2.0 points
- A D is… not great, and worth 1.0 point
- An F means you gotta retake it, and it’s worth 0.0
But not all classes are created equal! A 4-credit science lab impacts your GPA more than a 1-credit gym class. Our calculator automatically weights everything correctly.
How to Calculate Your GPA: The Easy Way
If you can type, you can do this. It’s that simple.
- List Your Classes: You’ll see a simple table. For each class, fill in:
- The Class Name (e.g., “History 101”) – just so you can keep track.
- The Credit Hours (1, 3, 4, etc.) – how much the class counts for.
- Your Grade – choose your letter grade (A, B+, C-, etc.) from a dropdown menu. We’ll handle the point value.
- Add More if You Need To: Have a full semester? Use the “+ Add Another Course” button. We can handle it.
- Hit Calculate: Click the button. Boom. Your overall GPA appears right away. No waiting, no guessing.
Why Bother Calculating Your GPA?
Knowing your GPA isn’t just about a number. It’s about your options.
- Stay on Track for Goals: Need a 3.5 for a scholarship or a specific program? Know exactly how close you are.
- Plan for the Future: See how your current grades affect your cumulative GPA. It’s a reality check that can motivate you to finish strong.
- Apply with Confidence: Scholarships, internships, and transfer applications often ask for your GPA. Now you can report it accurately.
A Quick Heads-Up
Most high schools and colleges in the U.S. use a standard 4.0 scale. Our calculator is built for that. If your school uses a different system (like a 10-point or percentage scale), you might need to double-check the conversion.
