GPA Average Calculator

Tip: Click “Fill table” to mirror these rows, then compute.

Groups match rows by Category (case‑insensitive). A group’s “Include in overall” can exclude matching rows from overall GPA, regardless of the per‑row include checkbox.

GPA = Σ(grade_pointsᵢ × creditsᵢ) / Σ(creditsᵢ) over included rows

Inclusion rules and conversions:
• Letter → points via active scale mapping (editable).
• Percentage → linear or thresholds to letter then points.
• Points → used directly.
• Weighted adds bonus: pointsᵢ ← pointsᵢ + honors_bonus.
• Capping: pointsᵢ ← min(pointsᵢ, scale_max) if enabled.
• Pass/Fail rows are excluded from GPA; credits may count toward earned.
• Repeats policy selects attempts by course name before aggregating.
• Category GPAs aggregate rows per category.
• Tracked groups aggregate rows whose Category matches any listed category.
• For overall GPA: a row must be checked “Include?” and not belong to any group with “Include in overall” turned off.

Empty or invalid rows are ignored. Credits must be non‑negative.

1. Select input type, scale or preset, and options.
2. Enter term, category, course, grade, credits, and flags.
3. Define tracked groups and categories; toggle “Include in overall”.
4. Click “Compute GPA” to update all summaries and trackers.
5. Export CSV/PDF or save your session; import later anytime.

Use “Add examples” to create “STEM GPA” and “Honors GPA”.

Your GPA is the ratio of total grade points to total GPA‑eligible credits for the rows currently included by your settings.

GPA = Σ(pointsᵢ × creditsᵢ) / Σ(creditsᵢ)

Where:
• pointsᵢ comes from the grade (letter/percent/points), the active scale,
  any honors/AP bonus, and optional capping at the scale maximum.
• Pass/Fail rows never contribute to GPA; Pass credits can count as earned.
• Repeat policy selects which attempts are considered per course name.
• “Include?” checkbox and tracked‑group rules decide overall inclusion.
• Category and tracked‑group GPAs use only the matching rows.

Worked example (4.0 scale, no weighting)

Tip: Switch scales or edit mappings to mirror your institution’s policy.

Unweighted GPA uses base points from the active scale only. Weighted GPA adds an honors/AP bonus per flagged course, optionally capped at the scale maximum.

Adjust the “Honors/AP bonus” and “Cap at max” options to match your rules.

These are common mappings; institutions vary. Use the mapping editor to match your policy exactly.

Switch to 5.0, 7.0, 10.0, or custom scales using the presets.

Guidelines vary by institution and program. These bands are common rules of thumb; always confirm with your registrar, handbook, or advisor.

Typical honors thresholds (undergraduate, varies by school)

Tip: Use “Tracked GPAs” to monitor targets like “Honors GPA” or “STEM GPA”.
