About this tool

Applications, scholarship forms and job portals often ask for a GPA when your transcript shows percentages. This tool gives the common US 4.0 equivalent as you type and shows the full table, so you can see where the cut-offs fall - 89.5% is a B+ (3.3), while 90% is an A- (3.7).

Institutions use different cut-offs, so treat the result as an estimate and check the policy of the school that will read it.

This converter turns a percentage mark into a GPA on the 4.0 scale and a letter grade, using a common US mapping: 93% and above is an A (4.0), 90-92.9% an A- (3.7), and so on down to below 60%, which is an F (0.0). The full conversion table is shown under the result with your band highlighted. It uses this one scale only - it does not convert to Pakistani or Indian grading or to CGPA, and your school's own table always takes precedence.

How to Use Percentage to GPA Converter

Enter Percentage

Type your percentage score (e.g. 85%).

Your band is highlighted in the conversion table, so you can see the cut-offs either side.

Common Workflows

Estimate a US GPA from percentage marks for a college or graduate application, check which letter grade a percentage corresponds to, see how far a mark is from the next grade band, or prepare a rough GPA figure before a counsellor or the target institution converts your transcript officially.

  • Converts a percentage from 0 to 100 into a 4.0-scale GPA and a letter grade from A to F, including plus and minus grades (A-, B+, B, B-, C+, C, C-, D+, D).
  • Shows the whole percentage-to-GPA table with your band highlighted, so you see the mapping and how close you are to the next band, not just one number.
  • Uses one common US scale. A value between two listed bands, such as 92.95%, counts in the lower band, and there is no copy button - the result is shown on screen.

FAQs

The most common questions are where the cut-offs come from and whether the result is official. The table is a common US mapping, not a universal standard - many universities, including most in Pakistan and India, publish their own conversion, so always check the table of the institution that will use your GPA.

How is a percentage converted to GPA here?

The tool uses a common US 4.0 scale: 93-100% = A (4.0), 90-92.9% = A- (3.7), 87-89.9% = B+ (3.3), 83-86.9% = B (3.0), 80-82.9% = B- (2.7), 77-79.9% = C+ (2.3), 73-76.9% = C (2.0), 70-72.9% = C- (1.7), 67-69.9% = D+ (1.3), 60-66.9% = D (1.0) and below 60% = F (0.0). Your band is highlighted in the table under the result.

What GPA is 85%?

On this scale 85% is a B, which is a 3.0 GPA. For comparison, 90% is an A- (3.7), 80% is a B- (2.7) and 75% is a C (2.0).

Does it convert Pakistani or Indian percentages, or work out CGPA?

No. It uses one US 4.0 scale only. Universities in Pakistan, India and elsewhere publish their own percentage-to-GPA tables, which can differ from this one, so use your institution's table when it has one. To work out a cumulative GPA from semester grade points and credit hours, use the CGPA Calculator.

Is the converted GPA official?

No. It is an estimate on a common scale. Universities, scholarship bodies and credential evaluation services apply their own rules, so the GPA they calculate from your transcript can be different.

What happens with a mark between two bands, like 92.95%?

It counts in the lower band, so 92.95% is an A- (3.7) - only 93% and above is an A. A value below 0 or above 100 shows no result.
