How other scales are converted

  • 10-point CGPA → 4.0: linear reference, GPA = CGPA × 0.4 (8.5 → 3.4).
  • 7-point (Australia) → 4.0: linear reference, GPA = score × 4/7 (7 → 4.0, 5 → ~2.9).
  • 4.3 scale (Canada) → 4.0: capped at 4.0 — an A+ (4.3) converts to 4.0, A (4.0) stays 4.0.
  • 5.0 scale → 4.0: linear reference, GPA = score × 0.8 (4.5 → 3.6).

Why there is no single correct answer

Grading scales differ not only between countries but between institutions within the same country. A "percentage" at one Chinese university may be calculated differently at another; an Australian 7-point scale has different descriptors per state. US admissions teams are used to this — many recalculate your GPA themselves from your official transcript, and some ask for a WES (or similar) evaluation. Use this converter to get a ballpark figure for your own planning.

Frequently asked questions

How do I convert my percentage to a 4.0 GPA?+

Enter your percentage (0–100) and select "Percentage (100-point scale)". We convert it using the standard US grading table: 93–100 → 4.0 (A), 90–92 → 3.7 (A-), 87–89 → 3.3 (B+), 83–86 → 3.0 (B), and so on. Note that some schools use slightly different ranges, so check your target university's policy for exact requirements.

How do I convert a 10-point CGPA to a 4.0 GPA?+

The most common method (used by many Indian and Nepali universities as a rough equivalent) is the linear formula: GPA = CGPA × 0.4. For example, an 8.5 CGPA becomes 3.4 on the 4.0 scale. There is no official universal standard, so always confirm with the university or credential evaluation agency (such as WES) you are applying to.

Can I convert a 7-point GPA (Australian system) to 4.0?+

Yes. We use a linear reference conversion: GPA = score × 4/7 (7 = High Distinction → 4.0, 5 = Credit → ~2.9). Australian universities usually review your original transcript and many do not convert grades themselves, so treat any 7-to-4 conversion as a rough reference only.

What about a 5.0 GPA scale?+

A 5.0 scale is used by some Chinese universities and weighted high school systems. Our reference conversion is GPA = score × 0.8, so a 4.5 becomes 3.6. Weighted scales that include honors/AP bonuses are calculated differently, so check how your school defines its scale.

Is this GPA converter accurate for university applications?+

There is no official, universal formula for converting between grading scales. Every university and credential evaluation service (WES, ECE, etc.) may use its own method, and many US universities recalculate your GPA from the original transcript. Use this tool as a quick reference estimate, not as an official conversion.

What GPA scale do US universities use?+

Most US universities use the 4.0 scale, where A = 4.0, B = 3.0, C = 2.0, D = 1.0, and F = 0.0, with plus/minus variations (A- = 3.7, B+ = 3.3, etc.). This is the scale our converter reports.

What is a good GPA on the 4.0 scale?+

In the US system, a 3.0 is generally considered a B average, 3.5+ is a strong GPA, and 3.7+ is excellent (A- average or better). Competitive graduate programs often look for 3.0–3.5+, depending on the field.
