Calculate your University of Toronto GPA on UofT's official 4.0 scale, with the full percentage-to-grade-point table and the sessional, annual and cumulative GPAs explained.
| Grade | Credits |
|---|
Enter each course's letter grade and its credit weight — at UofT a full-year course is normally 1.0 credit and a one-semester course 0.5.
| Grade | Grade points | Official percentage range |
|---|---|---|
| A+ | 4.0 | 90–100% · Excellent |
| A | 4.0 | 85–89% · Excellent |
| A− | 3.7 | 80–84% · Excellent |
| B+ | 3.3 | 77–79% · Good |
| B | 3.0 | 73–76% · Good |
| B− | 2.7 | 70–72% · Good |
| C+ | 2.3 | 67–69% · Adequate |
| C | 2.0 | 63–66% · Adequate |
| C− | 1.7 | 60–62% · Adequate |
| D+ | 1.3 | 57–59% · Marginal |
| D | 1.0 | 53–56% · Marginal |
| D− | 0.7 | 50–52% · Marginal |
| F | 0.0 | 0–49% · Inadequate |

| A+ (4.0) 1.0cr + C (2.0) 0.5cr | 3.33 / 4.00 |
| Four 0.5cr courses: A, A−, B+, B | 3.50 / 4.00 |
| A (4.0) 0.5 + F (0.0) 0.5 | 2.00 / 4.00 |
| GPA | What it covers | When it is calculated |
|---|---|---|
| Sessional | All passed and failed courses in one term (Fall, Winter) or session (Summer) | Three times a year |
| Annual | Everything completed in the Fall–Winter session only | At the end of the Winter term |
| Cumulative | Every passed and failed course in your degree | Continuously |
Awards and academic standing normally look at the annual and cumulative figures, so a strong single term does not by itself repair a weak year.
At UofT an A+ and an A are both worth 4.0. Unlike the LSAC scale, which gives an A+ 4.33, UofT offers no mathematical reward for the extra percentage points — the difference between 89% and 90% is recorded but does not move your GPA. This is why two students with visibly different marksheets can report exactly the same cumulative GPA.
Nor is there any extra weight for taking a harder course. UofT does not apply AP, IB or honors bumps to the GPA the way many US systems do; the difficulty shows up in the course load you carry, not in the arithmetic.
| Notation | Effect on GPA |
|---|---|
| CR / NCR | Credit or no credit — no grade point value, excluded from the GPA (CR requires at least 50%) |
| EXT | Extra course, not for degree credit — adds no grade points |
| LWD / WDR | Late withdrawal notations — no grade point value and no GPA impact |
| SDF | Standing deferred — no numerical grade, so nothing enters the average until it resolves |
| GWR / NGA / IPR | Withheld, not available or in progress — excluded until a real grade is posted |
Grade point values, percentage bands, the definition of sessional, annual and cumulative GPA, and the list of notations without grade point value come from the University of Toronto grading practices policy and the Arts & Science and UTM calendars, which publish the same refined letter grade scale.
Multiply each course's grade point value by its credit weight, add the results, and divide by the total credits. Grade points run from 4.0 for an A+ or A down to 0.0 for an F, and a full-year course (1.0 credit) counts twice a half course (0.5 credit).
No. Both are worth 4.0 grade points. The refined letter scale records the difference between 89% and 90% on your transcript, but the GPA treats them identically — so the highest possible UofT GPA is exactly 4.00.
The sessional GPA covers a single term or summer session. The cumulative GPA covers every course you have taken at UofT. Academic standing is assessed twice a year and looks at these together with the annual Fall–Winter GPA.
50%, which is a D− and 0.7 grade points. Anything below 50% is an F worth 0.0. In order to obtain final standing in a course you need at least a passing grade, a P, or a CR.
No. Credit/No-Credit courses carry no grade point value and are left out of every GPA calculation, although a CR still earns the credit toward your degree.
