UQ GPA Calculator
Calculate a semester or cumulative GPA from your UQ grades and units, then see the average you would need to reach a target.

How this calculator works
Choose the period you want to measure, such as one semester or your completed study, and enter each course once. Use the unit value from your record: a four-unit course carries twice the weight of a two-unit course.
Worked example: unequal course units
For grades 4, 5, 5 and 7 with units 2, 2, 1 and 1, the weighted total is 8 + 10 + 5 + 7 = 30. Divide by 6 units to get 5.000. Choose “Try example” to reproduce it.
Special grades and incomplete records
A non-graded pass (P) is excluded from both totals. A non-graded fail (N) contributes a grade of 2. Numeric failing grades remain in the calculation. The menu also supports supplementary results 3S4 and 3S3, and the zero equivalents G, M, K and X.
For pending, withheld, transferred or other unlisted results, confirm the treatment with UQ before relying on a complete GPA. Blank calculator rows are skipped for convenience. An actual enrolled course with no result is a different situation; UQ describes a zero in its GPA definition.
Plan a target GPA
Suppose your included work totals 30 grade-units over 6 units, and you have 4 more units planned. Reaching 5.5 overall requires (5.5 × 10 − 30) ÷ 4 = 6.25 across those remaining units. This is an average: the exact combination of achievable grades depends on the courses you take.
The target planner assumes the remaining courses all contribute to the same GPA. It does not predict marks, admission, scholarships or academic standing.
Frequently asked questions
Does a failed course count toward UQ GPA?
Numeric failing grades contribute their actual grade and units. A non-graded fail N is treated as 2 under UQ’s Assessment Procedure.
Is a P grade the same as a grade of 4?
No. Numeric 4 is a graded pass and contributes to GPA. The non-graded pass P is excluded from GPA.
Can I calculate my cumulative GPA?
Yes. Enter all courses that belong in the period you want to measure, using their course units. Do not average semester GPAs without accounting for different unit totals.
Can I convert percentage marks to UQ grades here?
No. Enter your awarded final grades. Assessment criteria and grade boundaries must come from the applicable course information.
