How to calculate your GPA
Generally, Washington State University uses the cumulative GPA from one of the following:
- The transcript of the accredited college or university from which the most recent bachelor’s degree has been granted or is expected; or
- The transcript of the accredited college or university from which there are 12 or more hours of graded graduate work taken after the bachelor’s degree, or from which a graduate degree has been granted or is expected.
International students: How to calculate your
GPA
- The WSU Graduate School uses a 4-point scale format which indicates a
- 4.00 = A
- 3.00 = B
- 2.00 = C
- 1.00 = D and
- 0.0 = F
- If your cumulative GPA is in a format other than this, convert it from your current format prior to reporting it.
