CGPA to GPA Converter
Converting a 10-point CGPA to a 4.0 GPA is required for applications to US, Canadian, and Australian universities. The most common formula is GPA = (CGPA / 10) × 4, but WES, ECE, and other credential evaluators may use lookup tables instead. This tool supports both methods.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which method do US graduate schools prefer?
Many top US schools require an official credential evaluation from WES, ECE, or Educated Credentials. They use lookup tables (often more conservative than the linear formula). Self-conversion is acceptable for initial screening but not final admission.
What is the WES conversion for 8.5 CGPA?
WES typically maps 8.0-8.4 CGPA to about 3.5-3.6 GPA, and 8.5-8.9 to 3.7-3.8. Linear conversion gives 3.4 for 8.5 CGPA, which is more conservative. Always verify against your evaluator.
How does CGPA convert when my university uses a non-standard scale?
If your university uses a 7-point or 9-point scale, first convert to 10-point using the relative formula (CGPA / max × 10), then apply the 4.0 conversion.
Will graduate schools recalculate my GPA themselves?
Yes — admissions committees usually recalculate or rely on credential evaluator reports. The GPA from this tool is for preliminary self-assessment, not the final number on your application.
