About the CUA GPA Calculator
The The Catholic University of America GPA Calculator multiplies each course's credits by its grade points, then divides the total quality points by counted credits. It uses the configured The Catholic University of America grading scale, and its grade choices match the school-specific table on this page.
The official grading reference notes that Catholic University's standard scale has no A+, no D+ or D-, and uses 4.0/3.7/3.3/3.0/2.7/2.3/2.0/1.7/1.0/0.0. The Weighted and Unweighted switch also lets you compare Regular, Honors, and AP/IB scenarios without presenting the optional bonuses as The Catholic University of America's official policy. Use the result as an estimate because the Registrar controls how repeats, transfers, pass/fail courses, exclusions, and incomplete work affect the official record.
How to Use the CUA GPA Calculator
Follow these steps for an accurate GPA result
1Choose Weighted or Unweighted GPA
Use the toggle at the top of the CUA GPA Calculator to switch modes. Unweighted mode follows the 4.0-point mapping shown on this page. Weighted mode is an optional planning comparison that adds 1.0 for AP/IB and 0.5 for Honors, capped at 5.0; it does not claim that The Catholic University of America applies those bonuses to official transcripts.
2Enter Your CUA Courses
Each semester starts with three course rows. Click "Add Course" to add more. For each course, optionally type a name, set the credit hours, pick your letter grade from the US 4.0 Scale (No A+, No D+, No D-), and choose the course type (Regular, Honors, or AP/IB). The Catholic University of America uses A as the highest grade, worth 4.0 points.
3Add All Your Semesters
Click "Add Semester" to add as many terms as you need — fall, spring, and summer semesters are all supported. The CUA GPA Calculator automatically computes both per-semester GPA and your running cumulative gpa across all semesters at once.
