Calculate credit-weighted GPA, a disclosed Honors/AP-IB bonus scenario, strict cumulative GPA, and the raw GPA needed to reach a target.
A quick decision brief for this specific tool
Courses, positive credits, letter grade, and disclosed standard/Honors/AP-IB bonus assumption; optional prior GPA/credits or target GPA/remaining credits
Unweighted and assumption-based weighted GPA, credits, quality points, strict cumulative GPA, and raw target requirement with four-point achievability
Credit-weighted grade points on the displayed 4.0 mapping; cumulative and target modes use exact quality-point algebra and never substitute invalid history with zero
Choose your path
Calculate credit-weighted semester GPA, combine valid prior history, or expose the raw GPA required for a target under a clearly disclosed planning scale.
Calculate GPA from courses with different credits.
Enter course, credits, letter grade, and standard/Honors/AP-IB type; compare unweighted quality points with the bonus scenario.
Can reproduce 36.7 quality points over 10 credits as 3.67 and knows the bonus model may differ from school policy.
Combine current courses with a valid prior GPA and credits.
Use cumulative mode and supply both prior fields before reviewing combined credits and GPA.
Invalid or partial history produces an explicit block instead of silently substituting zero or semester-only GPA.
Know whether a desired GPA is mathematically reachable over remaining credits.
Enter target and remaining credits, use the course table or start the two-field manual override, then inspect raw requirement and achievability.
Sees 4.50 as the raw requirement for 3.0/60 credits to reach 3.5 over 30 credits and understands it is outside this 4.0 model.
This tool is part of these guided projects. Each project provides step-by-step instructions with checklists and all the tools you need in one place.

Calculate a 100%-reconciled weighted grade or solve the raw final-exam score needed from current average, final weight, and target.
Calculate weighted GPA from honors, AP, and IB course grades and credits. Free weighted GPA calculator for high school transcripts and college applications.
Calculate percentages in seven modes with visible formulas, strict input validation, signed percentage change, and symmetric percentage difference.
Each course's grade points are multiplied by its positive credits, then total quality points are divided by total credits.
GPA = Σ(grade points × credits) ÷ Σ creditsMulti-step calculations show intermediate values so you can audit each stage. This transparency helps catch data-entry errors before relying on the final number.
This panel models A/A+ as 4.0, +0.5 for Honors, and +1.0 for AP/IB. Verify the registrar's official scale, repeat policy, transfer-credit treatment, and standing requirements.

A student combines a valid prior GPA and completed credits with the current course table and compares the model with the official transcript.
A teacher or student uses the GPA Calculator to verify homework, demonstrate formulas, or explore what-if scenarios in class.
A student enters target GPA and remaining credits to see the raw required GPA and whether it fits a 0.0–4.0 scale.
Model unweighted and assumption-based weighted GPA, combine valid prior GPA and credits, or solve a target. Official grade points, bonuses, repeats, transfer credits, honors, and academic-standing rules vary by institution.
