CGPA Calculator
Combine semester SGPAs into a cumulative grade point average (CGPA), weighted by credits.
About the CGPA Calculator
Enter each semester on its own line as SGPA and credits, for example “8.4 22”. The calculator gives your CGPA and the equivalent percentage under the two most common conversion rules.
CGPA is the credit-weighted average of all semesters, so a semester with more credits counts for more. If every semester carries the same credits, it's a plain average of the SGPAs, and you can enter just the SGPAs.
The formula
CGPA = Σ(SGPA × semester credits) ÷ Σ credits
- SGPA
- semester grade point average, on a 10-point scale
- credits
- total credits for that semester
Worked example
Four semesters: 8.4 (22 credits), 8.9 (24), 7.8 (21), 9.1 (23)
- Weighted total: 184.8 + 213.6 + 163.8 + 209.3 = 771.5
- Credits: 22 + 24 + 21 + 23 = 90
- CGPA = 771.5 ÷ 90 = 8.57, about 81.4% with the ×9.5 rule
Things to keep in mind
- Universities differ in how they handle failed or repeated courses; follow your university's rules for those semesters.
Questions people ask
How do I convert CGPA to percentage?
It depends on your board or university; use the CGPA to percentage calculator.
Can I average SGPAs directly?
Only if each semester has the same number of credits.
What CGPA do I need for 75%?
With the ×9.5 rule, 75 ÷ 9.5 = 7.89; with ×10, 7.5.
