Calculate your cumulative Grade Point Average (GPA) for college and high school. Weighted and unweighted 4.0 scale 100% in browser.
About This Tool
Maintaining a strong Grade Point Average (GPA) is critical for college admissions, academic scholarships, honors programs, and graduate school applications. Calculating your GPA accurately across courses with varying credit hours and letter grades ensures you know your exact standing. Our browser-native GPA Calculator allows you to input course names, letter grades (A+, A, A-, B+, B, etc.), credit hours (1 to 6 credits), and course difficulty levels (Regular, Honors, AP/IB). It calculates your term GPA, cumulative GPA, and projected target GPA needed to reach graduation goals. Because grade processing takes place 100% inside client-side browser RAM, your academic record and student grades remain strictly private on your computer.
