Weighted GPA Calculator

A weighted GPA gives extra points for harder classes. Bump sizes differ from school to school, so both of them are yours to set here.

How it works

Add the grade points for every class, add the honors bump for each honors class and the AP bump for each AP class, and divide by the number of classes.

The honors and AP bumps start at 0.5 and 1.0, which are common values. Change them to match your school's policy.

Worked example

Across these classes, the honors and AP bumps add 3 points, and the weighted GPA comes to 3.95.

Questions

What if my school uses different bump sizes?

Change the two bump boxes. The result updates at once, so you can compare two systems side by side.

Is a weighted GPA the same as my transcript GPA?

Not always. Some schools report both, and some do not add bumps at all. Your transcript shows which one counts.

Should a class be marked both honors and AP?

No. Mark one level only, since a class usually carries one level on a transcript.
