Step-by-Step GPA Conversion Procedure

Step-by-Step GPA Conversion Procedure

Note that if the grades are from an exchange or are transferred credits, you should write 鈥淐redit courses鈥� rather than the degree name.

  1. Download GPA conversion sheet听 (Microsoft Excel format) from 平特五不中鈥檚 Mechanical Engineering website.
  2. In the area for your name, fill in your name, as well as the university, the country in which the university is located, and degree with which the grades are associated. Please use the following format:听 听 听 听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听
    听听 听听听听听听 LAST NAME (all capitals) / First name (University, Country; Degree)
  3. Fill in 平特五不中 ID number (you will receive it once you submit online application form).
  4. If your grades are already in letter form (i.e. A, B, C, etc.), skip to Step 6.
  5. To convert your grades to the letter system, use the conversion scheme provided by your university. If the university does not provide a scheme, refer to the following website for grade conversions based on regions and countries:

    /gradapplicants/how-apply/application-steps/equivalency

    Follow the instruction on this website to convert numerical grades (e.g. 70%) to letter grades (e.g. B).听

    IMPORTANT:听 For transcripts from countries where an overall standing is provided (e.g. First Division, Second Class 鈥� Upper), convert the overall standing into a letter grade rather than individual course grades. 听This system is typically used by counties such as India, Pakistan, England, France and other commonwealth countries.听 If you have transcripts from these countries, please also refer to the notes on India below.

  6. Fill in the year of study in the GPA Calculation Spreadsheet, which appears to the right of the cell labeled 鈥�Year #鈥� (e.g. 2009-2010, Year 1 etc.).听 Use the same numbering system as it appears in your transcript. 听If your university reports an overall standing (e.g. First Division, Second Class 鈥� Upper), you should write 鈥淥verall鈥� rather than the specific year.
  7. In the first column, start by specifying the semester (Semester 1, Fall Semester, etc.). Below the semester, fill in the converted letter grades obtained during that time period. 听Remember to enter ALL grades that appear on your transcript, including 鈥淔ailure鈥� and 鈥淯nsatisfactory鈥� (these both convert into F).听 Exclude 鈥淧ass鈥� and 鈥淲ithdraw鈥� grades.
  8. Enter corresponding credit weight in the column 鈥淐redit Weight鈥�. 听If your university provides hours of instruction instead of credits, use them instead.听 If your university does not provide neither, use 1 as credit weight for all courses. The GPA will be calculated automatically.
  9. You can include multiple semesters within a single 鈥淵ear鈥� column, but be sure to differentiate between semesters and their corresponding grades as shown听in this example听 (i.e. Semester 1, Semester 2, Summer Semester, etc.). Repeat Steps 6-8 for each year of your studies. Please see below for specific instructions for selected countries.
  10. Please note that your Bachelor, Masters, and any other partial studies (exchange, transfer credits, etc.) must be calculated on separate sheets. These can be differentiated by specifying the degree title as described in Step 2.
  11. Print all the pages of the spreadsheet and include them into your application package.

Examples:

Note:

听听听听听听听听听 If your university provides an overall standing but your degree is in progress, please convert your grades individually by course.

听听听听听听听听听 Iran

  • Iranian conversions do not follow overall standing.听 Each original, numerical grade you obtained must be converted into a letter grade and entered into the spreadsheet.
  • There are two scales. The 10-point scale is usually used for Undergraduate studies while the 13-point scale is usually used for graduate studies.
  • Many universities use 12 as the passing grade for graduate studies rather than 13. If your transcript specifies that 12 is the passing grade, use the 12-point scale.

听听听听听听听听听 India (and countries following the British education system)

  • If the degree certificate provides an overall classification (e.g. Distinction, Lower Second Division, etc.), convert this single overall standing in lieu of individual grades.
  • If no overall standing is reported but the transcript provides annual averages, convert these annual averages rather than individual courses.
  • Only if your university does not report annual or overall standing, convert all grades by course.

听听听听听听听听听 France

  • French universities generally use annual averages. Convert these annual averages rather than individual courses.
  • If the degree certificate provides an overall classification (e.g. Tr猫s Bien, Passable, etc.), annual averages can be replaced by a single overall standing.
  • If no annual average or overall classification is provided, convert all grades by course.

听听听听听听听听 Germany

  • German transcripts should generally be converted by course grades.
  • In certain cases, an overall classification is provided on the degree certificate (e.g. Sehr Gut, Befriedigend, etc.). In such cases, use this overall standing in lieu of individual course grades.
