What is GPA?
GPA (Grade Point Average) is the average of your grade points for a single semester. It measures how well you performed in the courses you took during that semester, weighted by credit hours.
At Virtual University, GPA is calculated on a 4.0 scale.
What is CGPA?
CGPA (Cumulative Grade Point Average) is the average of all your grade points across every semester of your degree. It represents your complete academic performance and is used for scholarships, graduate admissions, and job screening.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which calculator should I use?
Use the GPA tab if you want to calculate your GPA for a single semester using course-wise grades. Use the CGPA tab if you already know your semester GPAs and credit hours.
What is a good GPA at VU?
A GPA of 3.0 or above is considered good. 3.5+ is excellent. Below 2.0 is at-risk. The same scale applies to CGPA.
Can I calculate CGPA without knowing individual course grades?
Yes! Use the CGPA tab — you only need your semester GPA and credit hours. No need for individual course grades.
How many semesters can I add in the CGPA calculator?
Unlimited. Add as many semesters as you want — 2, 4, 6, 8, or more.
Is this calculator accurate for VU?
Yes. It uses the exact same formula VU uses: GPA = Quality Points ÷ Credit Hours, and CGPA = Total Quality Points ÷ Total Credit Hours.
