GPA vs CGPA
What Is the Difference Between GPA and CGPA?
GPA (Grade Point Average) measures academic performance for a single semester. CGPA (Cumulative Grade Point Average) is the weighted average across all completed semesters. Both matter for different purposes โ scholarships often look at semester GPA while graduate school admissions and employers look at CGPA.
| Feature | GPA | CGPA |
|---|---|---|
| What it measures | Single semester performance | All semesters combined |
| How calculated | ฮฃ (Grade Points ร Credits) รท Semester Credits | ฮฃ (Semester GPA ร Credits) รท Total Credits |
| Resets each term? | Yes โ starts fresh each semester | No โ accumulates over full degree |
| Used for | Scholarships, academic probation checks | Graduation, grad school, job applications |
| Max value (4.0 Scale) | 4.0 โ % โ GPA รท 4 ร 100 | 4.0 โ % โ CGPA รท 4 ร 100 |
| Max value (10.0 Scale) | 10.0 โ % = CGPA ร 9.5 (UGC) | 10.0 โ % = CGPA ร 9.5 |
"A single bad semester hurts your GPA temporarily but lowers your CGPA permanently โ unless you compensate with stronger performance in future semesters. Early semesters carry more CGPA weight than most students realise."

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
This calculator supports 10 global grading systems: 4.0 GPA Scale, 5.0 Weighted GPA, 7.0 GPA Scale (Australia), 10.0 CGPA Scale (India/UGC), UK Classification (First, 2:1, 2:2, Third), Philippines 1.0โ5.0 reverse scale, ECTS European Scale (AโF), 12-Point GPA Scale, Percentage System (0โ100), and Custom University Scale. All grade options, benchmarks, and formulas update automatically when you switch systems.
GPA (Grade Point Average) is your academic performance for a single semester. CGPA (Cumulative Grade Point Average) is the weighted average of all your semester GPAs across your entire degree. GPA resets each semester while CGPA accumulates over time and represents your overall academic performance.
Select "Custom University Scale" from the dropdown. An editor appears where you can set your university's maximum GPA, percentage formula, and grade mappings (one per line in Grade=Points format, e.g. "A+=4.3"). The calculator instantly applies your custom grades and formula across all calculations.
The ECTS (European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System) uses letter grades A through F. A = Excellent (4.0 equivalent), B = Very Good (3.5), C = Good (3.0), D = Satisfactory (2.5), E = Sufficient (2.0), FX = Fail (conditional, 1.0), F = Fail (0.0). Used by universities across the European Higher Education Area (Bologna Process).
The Philippine grading system is a reverse scale โ 1.0 is the highest (Excellent, 97โ100%) and 5.0 means Failed (below 75%). This is the opposite of all other major grading systems. When you select Philippines in our calculator, the progress bars and benchmarks automatically adjust to reflect that a lower number means better performance.
Yes โ every new semester updates your CGPA. The earlier in your degree you are, the more impact each new semester has. Use the CGPA tab to model exactly how many semesters of strong performance you need to reach your target.
