How the Boston College GPA Calculator Works
This calculator uses Boston College's 12-category grading system. GPA is credit-weighted: each course grade becomes a grade point, that point value is multiplied by credits, then all quality points are divided by total GPA credits.
GPA = total quality points / total GPA creditsFor example, A in a 3-credit course contributes 4.00 x 3 = 12.00 quality points. The result above updates instantly as you enter more courses.
Boston College lists 12 grading categories from A through D- and F, and cumulative average is based on approved Boston College coursework. Source: Boston College Undergraduate Academic Regulations.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does Boston College calculate GPA?
Boston College GPA is calculated with a credit-weighted formula. Each grade is converted to grade points, multiplied by the course credits, then divided by total GPA credits. This page uses the grade-point values shown in the scale table above.
Is this Boston College GPA calculator official?
No. It is a planning calculator based on published grading information. Use it for quick estimates and what-if planning, but rely on the official student portal or transcript for the GPA that counts.
Which grades should I enter?
Enter only courses that carry GPA grade points. Leave out audit, pass/no-credit, transfer, incomplete, and withdrawal marks unless your school's policy says they count in GPA.
Can I use this for semester and overall GPA?
Yes. Enter one semester to estimate a term GPA, or enter all GPA-bearing courses to estimate your overall GPA. If you already know past semester GPAs, the overall college GPA calculator may be faster.
Why might the result differ from my transcript?
Differences usually come from rounding, repeated-course rules, excluded transfer courses, grade replacement, or school-specific academic policies. Treat this result as a close estimate.
Where did the grading scale come from?
The page links to the school-published or official grading source used for the calculator. Catalogs can change, so verify edge cases with the registrar or current catalog.
