The Grade Point Average (GPA) is an internationally recognised calculation used to find the average result of all grades achieved throughout your course.

For example, your grades might be a pass, credit, high distinction, distinction and so on. All grades, including fail grades, are given a numerical value and then those values are averaged which gives you your GPA.

The GPA helps:

• tertiary providers compare your results with those of other students
• prospective employers interpret your results.

Your Monash GPA is calculated on a four point grading scale where 4.0 is the highest and 0.0 is the lowest achievement.

How to find out your GPA

We'll calculate your GPA for your award course if you started on or after semester one, 2008. We don't calculate the GPA for research master's and PhD courses.

• You can use our online calculator below to estimate your GPA.
• You can view your latest GPA in your unofficial academic record in the Web Enrolment System (WES) at any time. It will be calculated using the results from all of your completed semesters.
• Your GPA will also appear on your academic record (transcript). You’ll receive a free academic record when you graduate.

Converting your GPA

Other institutions in Australia and abroad can have different GPAs. For example, a seven point grading scale.

• If you have a GPA from another institution and you want to convert it to our four point scale, you can use our online calculator.
• If however you want to convert your Monash GPA to that of another institution, you’ll need to contact that institution for assistance. They may even have an online calculator on their website.
