GPA = sum of (grade × units) ÷ sum of units
- Grades: 7 HD, 6 D, 5 C, 4 P, 3 marginal fail, 2 fail, 1 low fail.
- P, a non-graded pass, is left out of the GPA. N counts as 2.
- X, G, M and K count as 0. An enrolled course with no result counts as G.

How to use this GPA calculator
- Pick your university: UQ, ANU, Adelaide University or RMIT. To apply through UAC, pick UAC admission GPA.
- Enter each course's units, or credit points at RMIT, and pick its grade. Your GPA updates as you type.
- For a semester GPA, enter that semester's courses. For your GPA so far, enter every course so far.
- The line under the result says what each grade is worth under the rules you picked.
How a GPA is worked out
Your GPA weights each grade point by the course's units. Multiply each grade point by its units, add these up, then divide by the total units.
GPA = sum of (grade points × units) ÷ sum of units
- UQ grades run from 7 down to 1, and each grade counts as its own number. An N counts as 2, and an X, G, M or K as 0. A P, a non-graded pass, is left out.
- ANU gives HD 7, D 6, CR 5, P and PS 4, and N, NCN and WN 0, to three decimals. Honours grades count too: H1 7, H2A 6, H2B 5 and H3 4.
- Adelaide University gives HD 7, D 6, C 5 and P 4, and an F, FH or WF 1.5. It truncates the GPA to 2 decimals.
- RMIT uses a 4-point scale: HD 4, DI 3, CR 2, PA and SP 1, and NN, NH and DNS 0. It rounds the GPA to 1 decimal.
| Rules | Out of | Grade points | Rounding |
|---|---|---|---|
| University of Queensland (UQ) | 7 | 7 = 7; 6 = 6; 5 = 5; 4 = 4; 3 = 3; 2 and N = 2; 1 = 1; X, G, M and K = 0; P is left out | None stated |
| Australian National University (ANU) | 7 | HD and H1 = 7; D and H2A = 6; CR and H2B = 5; P, PS and H3 = 4; N, NCN and WN = 0; WD, WL, PX and CRS are left out | 3 decimals; how the last one is rounded is not stated |
| Adelaide University | 7 | HD = 7; D = 6; C = 5; P = 4; F, FH and WF = 1.5; PNG, FNG, AS and W are left out | Truncated to 2 decimals |
| RMIT University (4-point) | 4 | HD and CHD = 4; DI and CDI = 3; CR and CC = 2; PA, SP and CAG = 1; NN, NH and DNS = 0; PX is left out | Rounded to 1 decimal |
| UAC admission GPA (7-point) | 7 | HD = 7; D = 6; Cr = 5; P = 4; Conceded = 3; Fail = 0; Ungraded is left out | 2 decimals; how the last one is rounded is not stated |
UAC's table also shows 6.5 for a D in some grading systems, so the calculator lets you pick it.
Worked example: a UQ GPA of 4.5
This student comes from GradeCat's research on UQ's rules: four courses, 6 units, one of them an X.
| Course | Units | Grade | Grade × units |
|---|---|---|---|
| Course 1 | 2 | 6 | 12 |
| Course 2 | 2 | 4 | 8 |
| Course 3 | 1 | 7 | 7 |
| Course 4 | 1 | X | 0 |
| Total | 6 | 27 |
27 ÷ 6 = 4.5. The X counts as 0 and still counts its unit, so it pulls the GPA down. UQ gives no rounding rule, so the tool shows 4.5 as it is.
Worked examples at ANU, RMIT and Adelaide
ANU, from GradeCat's research: an HD and a D over 6 units each, a CR over 12 units and an N over 6 units give (42 + 36 + 60 + 0) ÷ 30 = 4.600.
RMIT, from the same research: an HD, a CR and a PA over 12 credit points each give (48 + 24 + 12) ÷ 36 = 2.333, which RMIT rounds to 2.3. RMIT's own page rounds 2.25 to 2.3 as well.
Adelaide University, from the same research: an HD and a C over 6 units each, and a P and an F over 3 units each, give (42 + 30 + 12 + 4.5) ÷ 18 = 4.9166, which Adelaide truncates to 4.91. The WAM Calculator works out this GPA from the marks, too.
WAM to GPA, and UAC's admission GPA
There is no single formula that turns a WAM into a GPA. UNSW and the University of Sydney say they do not use a GPA. When you apply through UAC with university study, UAC turns each subject's grade into a value on a 7-point scale: HD 7, D 6, Cr 5, P 4, a conceded pass 3 and a fail 0. It weights each subject by its load, counts every fail, and uses no level weighting.
From GradeCat's research: an HD and a Cr over 6 credit points each, a P over 12 and a fail over 6 give (42 + 30 + 48 + 0) ÷ 30 = 4.00.
- UAC's table also gives a D 6.5 in some grading systems. GradeCat could not tell which systems, so 6 is the default, and 6.5 is a choice under Rules.
- Ungraded passes are left out, unless your GPA without them is below 4 or they are more than half your load. UAC does not say what value they then get, so the tool leaves them out and tells you when UAC would count them.
- If your transcript shows no credit points, UAC counts subjects equally: enter 1 for each.
- UAC does not say how this GPA becomes a selection rank, and QTAC does not either, so the tool stops at the GPA.
What is not verified yet
- UAC's D. Its table shows 6 and 6.5 for a D, and which grading systems use 6.5 is not verified.
- How UAC values an ungraded pass when it does count one.
- Rounding at UQ, which gives no rule, and the last decimal at ANU and UAC, which say how many decimals but not how they round.
- Adelaide University. Its procedure does not mention the merger that formed it, so it is not confirmed that it covers every 2026 cohort.
- Monash, Macquarie and Deakin. Their sites refused our reader on 4 November 2026, so there are no presets for them. Other universities' rules, and GEMSAS's GPA for graduate-entry medicine, were not verified.
GPA calculator FAQ
How do I calculate my GPA in Australia?
Multiply each grade point by the course's units, add these up, and divide by your total units. For the UQ student above, that is (12 + 8 + 7 + 0) ÷ 6 = 4.5.
Is a GPA out of 7 or out of 4?
UQ, ANU and Adelaide University use a 7-point scale, and so does UAC. RMIT's GPA is out of 4.
Does a fail count in my GPA?
Yes, at each university here. At UQ a 3, 2 or 1 counts as its number and an N as 2. At ANU an N is 0, at Adelaide an F is 1.5, and at RMIT an NN is 0. UAC counts every fail at 0.
Can I convert my WAM to a GPA?
Not with one formula. UNSW and the University of Sydney say they do not use a GPA. For an application through UAC, pick UAC admission GPA and enter the grade of each subject.
Can I turn my GPA into an ATAR?
No. UAC and QTAC do not publish how a GPA becomes a selection rank, so no tool can do it from their rules.
Does ANU round the GPA?
ANU calculates the GPA to three decimals. It does not say how the last decimal is rounded, so the tool rounds half up and shows the value before rounding too.
