SGPA to CGPA Conversion Calculator
Convert semester GPA (SGPA) to cumulative CGPA with credit weighting.
Direct Answer
To convert Semester GPA (SGPA) across terms into Cumulative GPA (CGPA), calculate the weighted average of each semester's SGPA by its credit count: CGPA = Σ(SGPA_i × Credits_i) ÷ Total Credits.
Add semesters — SGPA + credits → CGPA (credit-weighted).
| Semester | SGPA | Credits |
|---|
CGPA
—/ 10 or 4.0
CGPA = Σ(SGPA×credits)/Σcredits
How to use
- 1Enter the SGPA and total credits for each semester you have completed.
- 2Add semesters in order, from first to most recent.
- 3See your cumulative CGPA, which weights each semester by its credit total rather than simply averaging them.
Formula
CGPA = Σ (SGPA × semester credits) / Σ semester credits| Variable | Name | Meaning & Example |
|---|---|---|
| SGPA | Semester Grade Point Average | Grade point average earned in a specific academic term (8.2) |
| C_i | Semester Credits | Total credit units completed in that term (22 credits) |
Each semester's SGPA is multiplied by its credit load, summed across all semesters, and divided by total credits. This is the credit-weighted cumulative average used by many universities, particularly in India and South Asia.
Examples
Sem 1: SGPA 8.0 (24cr), Sem 2: SGPA 8.5 (24cr)
CGPA = (192 + 204) ÷ 48.
CGPA 8.25
About
The SGPA to CGPA Calculator converts your semester grade point averages into a cumulative CGPA. Enter the SGPA and total credits for each completed semester, and the calculator applies the credit-weighted formula used by universities that report grades on both scales. Because it weights each semester by its credit load, the resulting CGPA is accurate even when credit totals vary between terms. Students commonly use this tool to prepare transcripts for graduate applications, verify university-reported CGPA values, and track their standing across the entire program.
Frequently asked questions
How is CGPA different from SGPA?
SGPA is your grade point average for a single semester. CGPA is the cumulative average across all semesters, weighted by credits.
Is averaging my SGPAs the same as CGPA?
Only if every semester has identical credits. When credit loads differ, the correct CGPA is the credit-weighted average.
Can I simply average my SGPAs together to get my CGPA?
Only if every semester has the exact same number of credits. If semesters have different credit counts (e.g. 20 credits vs 24 credits), you must compute a credit-weighted average.
What is considered a First Class CGPA?
In most 10-point university grading systems, a CGPA of 6.75 to 7.49 is awarded First Class, while a CGPA of 7.50 or higher earns First Class with Distinction.
