Maldives 10-Point CGPA & Percentage Division Scale

Linear Baseline: US_GPA = (CGPA_10 × 4) ÷ 10 Banded Percentage Equivalents: 75% – 100% (First Class with Distinction) → 4.0 US GPA 60% – 74% (First Class / Division 1) → 3.0 – 3.5 US GPA 50% – 59% (Second Class / Division 2) → 2.0 – 2.5 US GPA 40% – 49% (Third Class / Pass) → 1.0 – 1.5 US GPA Under 40% (Fail) → 0.0 US GPA

Universities in Maldives utilize both 10-point Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) scales and percentage division classifications. First Class with Distinction (typically 75%+) maps to a US 4.0 (A). First Class standing (60–74%) maps to a solid 3.0–3.5 (B/B+), qualifying students for US graduate admissions.

Examples

Semester Transcript in Maldives (20 Credits Total)

Course 1: 8.5 CGPA / Distinction (4.0 GPA, 10 cr) → Quality Points = 4.0 × 10 = 40.0
Course 2: 7.2 CGPA / First Division (3.0 GPA, 10 cr) → Quality Points = 3.0 × 10 = 30.0
Total Quality Points = 40.0 + 30.0 = 70.0 ÷ 20 credits.

Estimated US GPA: 3.50

Frequently asked questions

How is a 10-point CGPA converted to US 4.0 GPA?
While a direct linear conversion scales CGPA by 0.4 (e.g. 8.0 × 0.4 = 3.2), institutional evaluators like WES evaluate grade distributions and frequently award a 3.5+ for CGPAs above 8.0.
Does a First Division degree qualify for US graduate school?
Yes. A First Class or First Division degree (60%+) from an accredited university in Maldives satisfies the minimum 3.0 GPA requirement for US master's and doctoral programs.
What is the difference between SGPA and CGPA in India?
SGPA measures academic performance in a single term, while CGPA combines all completed semesters into an overall cumulative average: CGPA = Σ(SGPA_i × Credits_i) ÷ Total Credits.
Do US universities accept a 3-year Indian Bachelor's degree (B.Com, B.Sc)?
Many US universities now accept 3-year Indian Bachelor's degrees if accredited with NAAC Grade 'A' or when evaluated as a US 4-year equivalent by WES.
