The calculator supports both unweighted and weighted GPA calculations and reflects how schools actually compute GPA for transcripts, admissions, and scholarships.

GPA (Grade Point Average) is calculated by converting letter grades into grade points, multiplying those points by credit hours, and dividing by the total number of credits.
On a standard 4.0 GPA scale, an A equals 4.0 points, a B equals 3.0, a C equals 2.0, a D equals 1.0, and an F equals 0. Advanced courses may carry additional weight.
