The Viterbo GPA Calculator helps students at Viterbo University project their cumulative GPA based on current academic standing and anticipated future course performance. It uses the standard GPA calculation formula to provide an estimate of your overall academic performance.

Where:
Explanation: This formula calculates a weighted average of your current academic performance combined with your anticipated future performance.
Details: GPA projection helps students set academic goals, understand the impact of current semester performance on overall standing, and make informed decisions about course loads and academic planning.
Tips: Enter your current cumulative GPA, total credits completed, expected grade points from new courses (grade value × credit hours), and total new credit hours. All values must be valid positive numbers.
Q1: How accurate is the GPA projection?
A: The projection is mathematically accurate based on the inputs provided. Actual results may vary based on actual course performance.
Q2: What is the grading scale at Viterbo University?
A: Viterbo uses a standard 4.0 scale where A=4.0, A-=3.7, B+=3.3, B=3.0, B-=2.7, C+=2.3, C=2.0, C-=1.7, D+=1.3, D=1.0, D-=0.7, F=0.0.
Q3: How do I calculate new grade points?
A: Multiply the expected grade value (4.0 for A, 3.7 for A-, etc.) by the credit hours for each course, then sum these values for all new courses.
Q4: Can I use this for multiple semesters?
A: Yes, you can use the projected GPA from one calculation as the "current GPA" for subsequent projections.
Q5: Where can I find my current GPA and credits?
A: Your current cumulative GPA and total credits completed are available on your official transcript and student portal.
