How the UK Degree Class ↔ Indian Percentage Converter works
How conversion works on this page
UK undergraduate classifications use standard thresholds: First ≥70%, 2:1 ≥60%, 2:2 ≥50%, Third ≥40% (QAA / university academic regulations). Mapping Indian % into UK class labels uses these published cut-points.
Use the mode toggle for Indian % → foreign scale and the reverse. Band tables are shown under the result.
Country / scale context
UK Master’s and undergraduate offers often state a minimum UK class (e.g. 2:1). Indian first-class (≥60% at many universities) is frequently treated as competitive for 2:1-equivalent offers, but each university publishes its own India equivalency table.
Important limitation
Credential evaluators (e.g. WES) and individual universities may apply course-by-course evaluation that differs from a single overall percentage mapping. Treat outputs as educational guidance for planning, not as an official evaluation report.
Frequently asked questions
Is this an official conversion from a credential evaluator?
No. It applies documented common conventions and cites them. Official WES / university evaluations can differ.
Can I convert both ways?
Yes — use the mode toggle above the inputs.
Where do the bands / formula come from?
UK undergraduate classifications use standard thresholds: First ≥70%, 2:1 ≥60%, 2:2 ≥50%, Third ≥40% (QAA / university academic regulations). Mapping Indian % into UK class labels uses these published cut-points.
Will a university accept this percentage?
Always check the target institution’s published India / overseas equivalency table. This tool does not replace an admissions decision.
