Grade Point Average (GPA)

Use our handy online calculator to work out your GPA.

Your Grade Point Average (GPA) is a numerical summary of your academic performance over a specific study period (like one semester). It’s calculated by dividing the total grade points you’ve earned by the total credit points you’ve completed. The result gives a weighted average of your grades.

GPA is an internationally recognised measure of academic achievement. It’s often used to:

  • select students for prizes and scholarships
  • award degrees with honours or pass with distinction
  • determine eligibility for research programs
  • determine eligibility for undergraduate and postgraduate programs at other Australian universities
  • set minimum entry requirements for students moving from VET to higher education.

GPA calculations don’t apply to research degrees.
