Target GPA Calculator

Enter current GPA, completed credits, remaining credits, and a target GPA to calculate the average GPA needed and whether the target is reachable.

Frequently asked questions

How is the required GPA calculated?

Required GPA = [target GPA × (completed + remaining credits) − current GPA × completed credits] ÷ remaining credits.

What happens if the required GPA is impossible on my scale?

The calculator tells you the target isn't reachable in your remaining credits rather than showing a number above your grading scale's maximum — you'd need more remaining credits or a lower target.

Does this account for retaking courses?

No, it models only new remaining credits. Use the Retake Calculator first to see how a retake changes your current CGPA, then re-run this calculator with the updated number.
