Diploma GPA Calculator

Diploma programmes typically span multiple semesters. Compute each semester's GPA here, then use the cumulative calculator to pool credits across Semester I and II.

Diploma GPA Scheme

Configurable example GPA scale. Institutions define their own credit weights and grade points per their regulator's rules.

70% → B (4 pts)×3 = 12
80% → A (5 pts)×2 = 10

Indicative calculation using this example scheme — your institution's official grading takes precedence.

Worked example

Example: 4 courses with marks 85/70/55/90 and credits 3/2/4/3 → weighted points 15+8+8+15 = 46 across 12 credits → CGPA 3.83 (Credit band).
