When to use GPA Calculator
It's week 10 of the semester and you got a C+ in a 3-credit required course. Before spiraling, open this page: enter each course with its letter grade and credit hours, and the weighted GPA appears. A 4-credit A lifts the average more than a 1-credit A, so the weighting matters. Add your cumulative GPA and prior total credits in the running-total section and you'll see exactly where the semester lands your overall number — and whether you can still hit the 3.5 needed for that scholarship application. Uses the standard 4.0 scale with full plus/minus support. Your grades stay on your device; nothing is sent to any server or stored between sessions.
