Free GPA & CGPA Calculator

GPA (Grade Point Average) typically refers to a single semester's result. CGPA (Cumulative GPA) is the weighted average across all completed semesters, where each module's credit hours act as the weight. This calculator computes the CGPA by treating all entered modules as a single combined calculation — add modules from multiple semesters to get your cumulative result.

Yes — this is the defining characteristic of a weighted GPA. A 4-credit module contributes four times more to your GPA calculation than a 1-credit module. This is why it is strategically important to prioritise performance in high-credit core modules: a strong grade in a 4-credit module has a larger positive impact than the same grade in a 1-credit elective.

Requirements vary by institution and degree programme, but the most common thresholds for a 4.0 scale are: First Class Honour — CGPA 3.70 or above; Second Class Upper — 3.30 to 3.69; Second Class Lower — 3.00 to 3.29; Pass — 2.00 to 2.99. Always verify the specific classification boundaries with your institution's academic regulations, as thresholds can differ between programmes and affiliated universities.

Yes — simply add all modules from all semesters to the calculator. Because the formula weights each module by its credit hours, the result is your cumulative GPA across all entered modules, not an average of semester GPAs. Adding each semester's modules individually and then combining gives the same result as calculating all at once.

Policy varies by institution. Some replace the original grade with the retake grade in the GPA calculation (replacement policy); others average both attempts; and some record both grades but use only the higher one. Check your institution's academic regulations before calculating the effect of a retake. In this calculator, enter only the grade that will count toward your official GPA per your institution's policy.
