How the USA GPA ↔ Indian Percentage Converter works

Each block explains one part of how this works and how to read the result.

  1. How conversion works on this page

    Band table follows commonly published India percentage → US 4.0 letter/GPA equivalency charts used by admissions counsellors (WES-style illustration). Official WES iGPA output may differ — treat as educational equivalence, not a WES report.

    Use the mode toggle for Indian % → foreign scale and the reverse. Band tables are shown under the result.

  2. Country / scale context

    US universities report grades on a 4.0 GPA scale (A=4.0). Indian transcripts usually show percentage or 10-point CGPA; credential evaluators map course-by-course rather than applying one flat multiplier to the entire degree.

  3. 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?

Band table follows commonly published India percentage → US 4.0 letter/GPA equivalency charts used by admissions counsellors (WES-style illustration). Official WES iGPA output may differ — treat as educational equivalence, not a WES report.

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.
