GPA scale converter

Enter a GPA and the scale it is on to see the same proportion on the other three scales. This is plain linear scaling, so treat the result as an approximation and not as an official conversion.

How to use it

  1. Choose the scale your number is on.
  2. Type the value.
  3. Read the same proportion on the other scales.

How it works

target = value ÷ top of source scale × top of target scale. The tops are 4, 5, 10 and 100.

Worked example

A 7.5 on a 10-point scale is 75 percent of the top: 3.0 on a 4.0 scale, 3.75 on a 5.0 scale and 75 percent.

Tips

For applications, ask the admissions office or use the evaluator they name. A proportional estimate is fine for a rough comparison, not for official forms.

Frequently asked questions

How is the conversion calculated?

The value is divided by the top of its own scale and multiplied by the top of the target scale. A 3.5 on a 4.0 scale is 87.5 percent of the top, which is 4.375 on a 5.0 scale, 8.75 on a 10-point scale and 87.5 percent.

Is this an official conversion?

No. Schools, boards and credential evaluators publish their own tables, which are often not linear. A 4.0 does not always mean 100 percent. Use the method your target institution asks for.

Why is my result different from my transcript?

Transcripts use the institution's grading rules, weighting for honors courses and rounding. A straight proportion ignores all of that.

How is this different from the CGPA to percentage tool?

That tool uses a stated multiplier such as the CBSE rule of 9.5. This one rescales between four scales in proportion and does not apply any board's rule.
