Know where your grades can take you

Convert a university grade between 53 grading systems and see what it actually means for admission — with the source and check date behind every number.

What kind of grade is this?

A Bachelor's / first-degree grade — for graduate (Master's) admission or employment

Got a school-leaving qualification instead — A-levels, Class 12, WASSCE, the Abitur? Here's what actually happens to those.

IndiaPercentage / CGPA (UGC Choice Based Credit System)

Hover or tap a band to see what it means.

Enter a grade above to see what it means in the United States

You'll get the classification it corresponds to, the range it falls in rather than a single false-precise number, and how firm that answer is.

Frequently asked questions

How accurate is GradeBridge's grade conversion?

Each country's grade bands come from a document that shows them — usually a Nuffic country module or Scholaro's credential-evaluation database — deep-linked on the page with the date we checked it. The conversion method is our own, corroborated against WES and Nuffic rather than taken from either, and it is published in full on our methodology page, including what it cannot do. Results are shown as a range rather than a single number because no two evaluators convert identically.

Will a university accept this conversion?

No — and most will not ask you to convert anything. Admissions offices do their own evaluation from your original transcript. The University of Wisconsin–Madison Graduate School puts it plainly: "The Graduate School will use your institution's grading scale. Do not convert your grades to a 4.00 scale." Use this tool to understand where you stand and which programmes are realistic, then send your transcript as issued. Where a US or Canadian university requires a formal evaluation, that comes from WES or ECE, not from a converter.

Why is my 78% worth more than dividing by 25 suggests?

Because a percentage means different things in different systems. Indian marking rarely goes above 90%, so the top of the scale is effectively unreachable and a 78% is a Distinction — worth roughly 3.66–3.86 on the US 4.0 scale, not the 3.12 you get from dividing by 25. Credential evaluators map band to band for exactly this reason. It is also why the country you select matters more than the number you type: the same 78% from a US university is an ordinary result.

Do I still need a WES evaluation?

For most formal applications to US and Canadian universities, yes. GradeBridge is the step before WES: understand your standing, shortlist programmes, and then decide whether the ~$200 evaluation is worth ordering. See our WES guide for the full process.
