About The Raise GPA Calculator

This raise GPA calculator tool helps you to set, plan, and track your GPA goals. It specifically allows you to see what GPA and or credits you need in a semester to achieve your desired GPA.

How to use the calculator

To use the raise GPA calculator, simply follow these instructions and input grade info where the calculator says to:

1. Enter your current GPA and credits into the first top two inputs. If you don’t know your current GPA, you can use our GPA calculator.
2. For the third and fourth inputs, enter your desired GPA and a realistic, maintainable average GPA for the semester.
3. For the fifth and sixth inputs, enter how many credits you’re taking in the semester and what you want to raise your semester GPA to.
4. Once all of the necessary grade info is entered into the calculator, it’ll automatically calculate and display your results in two output fields. The first output field will show you what amount of credits it will take while averaging your maintainable GPA to achieve your desired GPA. The second output field will show you what GPA you’ll need to average to achieve your desired semester GPA. Note that the output fields are greyed out.

How the calculator works

This raise GPA calculator works by taking your inputted grade info and running it through two different formulas to find the number of credits it will take to achieve your desired GPA and the GPA you’ll need to average in a semester to achieve your desired GPA. These two pieces of information can help you better set, plan, and track your GPA goals.
