Under the hood

Formula used & a worked example

The formula

Conversion depends on the selected grading scale.

% → GPA: lookup grade band
GPA → %: midpoint of matching band
Letter → GPA/%: direct scale lookup

Every conversion runs through the same grade-band table for the scale you pick (4.0, 4.3, or 5.0 weighted), so results stay consistent across all five conversion directions.

How it works

Five conversions, one grading table

Every school reports grades differently — some use percentages, some use letter grades, some use GPA points directly. When you're filling out a scholarship form or an international application, you often need to translate your grade from one system into whatever the form is asking for.

This converter runs all five directions off the same underlying grade-band table for your selected scale, so a percentage, a letter grade, and a GPA point value all agree with each other — switch tabs and the same 87% will always map to the same A- band.

Common US 4.0 grade bands
A (93–100%)4.0
A- (90–92%)3.7
B+ (87–89%)3.3
B (83–86%)3.0

Grade Converter vs GPA Calculator

+

Use the Grade Converter when…

You have a single grade (a percentage, letter, GPA or CGPA) and need it translated into a different format for a form, application, or comparison.

+

Use the GPA Calculator when…

You have a full list of courses with credits and grades, and need to calculate a real GPA from them rather than convert a single number.

"My scholarship form wanted a GPA and my transcript only shows percentages. This converted it in one click, correctly."

FAQ

Common questions about the grade converter

Is this result official?
No — it's an estimate based on the values and scale you selected. Confirm official grade-band mappings with your institution before making a decision.
Can I save this result?+
Yes — create a free dashboard account and every conversion is saved with its inputs, formula and result, so you can revisit it later.
Why do different scales give different GPAs for the same grade?+
The 4.3 and 5.0 scales add extra headroom above a standard A, mainly to reflect weighted or honors-level coursework, so the same letter grade can map to a higher GPA point on those scales.
What does CGPA → % assume?+
It treats your CGPA the same as a GPA value on the selected scale and returns the midpoint percentage of the matching grade band — useful for a quick estimate, not an official transcript conversion.
Does this handle grades below F or above A+?+
The scale covers the standard F through A+ (or up to 5.0 on the weighted scale) — anything outside that range should be confirmed directly with your institution's grading policy.
How is this different from the GPA Calculator?+
This tool converts a single grade between formats. The GPA Calculator instead computes a real GPA from a full list of courses, credits and grades.
