Frequently Asked Questions

How do I convert Indian percentage to US GPA?+

A common estimate maps percentage bands to the 4.0 scale: 85%+ ≈ 4.0, 80–84% ≈ 3.7, 75–79% ≈ 3.3, 70–74% ≈ 3.0, 65–69% ≈ 2.7, 60–64% ≈ 2.3. Our tool does this instantly. Note that each university and evaluators like WES use their own method, so treat it as a guide.

How do I convert 10-point CGPA to percentage?+

Most Indian universities (including CBSE) use CGPA × 9.5 = percentage. So a 8.0 CGPA ≈ 76%. Our converter applies this automatically before mapping to US GPA. Always confirm your own university's official formula, as some differ.

Is a converted GPA official for university applications?+

No. This is an estimate to help you gauge where you stand. US and Canadian universities typically either accept your original transcript and convert it themselves, or ask for a WES/credential evaluation. Never enter a self-converted GPA as official.

What GPA do I need for US universities?+

It varies widely. Many US master's programs look for roughly a 3.0+ GPA (≈70%+ / 7.4 CGPA), while top schools expect 3.5+ (≈80%+). A lower GPA can be offset by strong GRE/GMAT, work experience, research, and a compelling SOP.
