Frequently Asked Questions
How is weighted GPA calculated?
Each grade is converted to grade points (A = 4.0 on the standard scale), multiplied by the course’s credit hours, and the total is divided by total credit hours.
What is the difference between weighted and unweighted GPA?
Unweighted GPA treats every course equally on a 4.0 scale. Weighted GPA gives extra points for honors or AP courses — this calculator uses the standard 4.0 scale, which most US colleges report.
Can I calculate my cumulative GPA?
Yes. Enter all your courses across semesters in one list, and the result is your cumulative GPA.
