How to Convert GPA to Percentage
Converting GPA to percentage is one of the most common tasks for students applying to international universities or jobs. Different countries use different grading scales, and there's no single universal formula. This converter handles the most widely used grading systems so you get an accurate result regardless of where you study.
For the US 4.0 scale, the conversion uses standard grade mapping: a 4.0 GPA corresponds to approximately 95%, 3.0 to 83%, 2.0 to 73%, and so on. The converter uses linear interpolation between standard grade breakpoints (A, A-, B+, B, etc.) for precise results at any GPA value.
For the Indian 10-point scale, the widely accepted formula is Percentage = GPA x 9.5, as recommended by AICTE. The Australian 7-point scale maps HD (7) to 85-100%, D (6) to 75-84%, Credit (5) to 65-74%, and Pass (4) to 50-64%. The 5-point scale uses simple linear conversion.
Why Do Students Need GPA Conversion?
International students frequently need to convert between grading systems. If you earned a degree in India and are applying to a US graduate program, you'll need to present your grades on a 4.0 scale. Similarly, Australian students applying to UK universities often need percentage equivalents. Employers in different countries also have varying expectations.
The Scale Converter mode in this tool makes cross-country conversion easy. It converts your GPA from any supported scale to any other by first normalizing to a percentage and then converting to the target scale.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a 3.5 GPA in percentage?
On the US 4.0 scale, a 3.5 GPA corresponds to approximately 88.5%. This falls between a B+ (3.3 / 87%) and an A- (3.7 / 90%). It's considered a strong GPA that's competitive for most graduate programs.
How do I convert my Indian CGPA to a US 4.0 GPA?
Use the Scale Converter mode. Select "10.0 Scale (India)" as the source and "4.0 Scale (US)" as the target. The tool first converts your CGPA to a percentage using the AICTE formula (CGPA x 9.5), then maps that percentage to the US 4.0 scale. For example, a CGPA of 8.0 = 76% = approximately 2.77 on the US 4.0 scale.
Is GPA to percentage conversion the same for every university?
No. While there are standard conventions (like the US 4.0 scale or India's CGPA x 9.5 formula), individual universities may have their own conversion tables. This tool uses the most widely accepted standards for each grading system. For official applications, always check if the target institution has a preferred conversion method.
What's the difference between GPA and CGPA?
GPA (Grade Point Average) is the general term used globally, typically on a 4.0 scale in the US. CGPA (Cumulative Grade Point Average) is more commonly used in South Asian countries (India, Pakistan, Bangladesh) and is usually on a 10-point scale. Both measure academic performance but use different scales and conversion formulas.
