How the UK Degree Class ↔ Indian Percentage Converter works
Each block explains one part of how this works and how to read the result.
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.
