About the UA GPA Planner

This UA GPA Planner helps University of Alabama students project and plan their cumulative gpa using the US 4.3 Scale (4.3-point scale). Enter your current cumulative gpa and the total credit hours you have completed, then add one or more planned semesters with expected courses and grades. The planner calculates your projected GPA after those semesters and shows whether you are on track to reach your target — whether that is Dean's List, a scholarship threshold, graduate school requirements, or a personal academic goal. Use the What-If mode to model multiple scenarios (optimistic, realistic, and conservative) side by side before committing to a course plan.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about calculating GPA at UA

Projected GPA = (Current GPA × Current Credits + Future Grade Points) ÷ (Current Credits + Future Credits). "Future Grade Points" is the sum of (credit hours × grade point) for each planned course. This is the same formula your University of Alabama Registrar uses to compute your official cumulative gpa.
