About the Adelaide Uni GPA System
If you started your program at UniSA or the University of Adelaide and continued it at Adelaide University, your earlier results count in the same GPA with two changes. A pass from either foundation university is worth 4.5 grade points, not 4 (pick "P (foundation uni pass)" above), and old course units are converted: UniSA 4.5, 9, 13.5 and 18 units and University of Adelaide 3, 6, 9 and 12 units become 6, 12, 18 and 24. Foundation-university W and WF results are not included. A UniSA non-graded pass (NGP) is left out unless your GPA is below 4; then it counts at 4 grade points and the University uses whichever result is better. The University says a small number of transitioning students have results that need extra treatment, and that it will contact them.
Why GPA Matters at Adelaide Uni
Adelaide University uses the GPA as its standard grading scheme. Honours classes come from a separate honours WAM of the honours courses named in your program rules: 80-100 First Class (H1), 70-79 Second Class (H2A), 60-69 Second Class (H2B) and 50-59 Third Class (H3); 49 or below gives no honours classification. We did not check distinction or Dean's list rules.
Adelaide Uni Grading Note
Adelaide University, formed from the University of Adelaide and UniSA, uses one 7-point GPA: High Distinction (85-100) is 7, Distinction 6, Credit 5 and Pass (50-64) 4, while a Fail or Failed Hurdle earns 1.5, not 0. Non-graded results (PNG, FNG) and Withdraw Not Fail (W) are left out. For the WAM, a percentage average, use the WAM calculator at /wam-calculator/.
Adelaide Uni Accuracy Scope
Adelaide University truncates GPAs and WAMs to two decimals: 222 ÷ 42 = 5.2857 is published as 5.28. This calculator now displays the same two-decimal truncation for Adelaide GPA results. Withdraw Fail (WF) is not in the grade list here: the Grading Procedure gives it 1.5 grade points, but the transition table on the University's GPA page shows it as not included. Credit from another program or university usually does not count.
GPA Tips for Adelaide Uni Students
- Convert foundation-university units before you enter them: a 4.5-unit UniSA course or a 3-unit University of Adelaide course counts as 6 units.
- Most Adelaide University courses are 6 units, and a course's year level does not change its weight.
- A UniSA non-graded pass (NGP) only counts if your GPA is below 4, and then at 4 grade points.
Common GPA Mistakes at Adelaide Uni
Counting a fail as 0 or rounding the result. At Adelaide University a Fail or Failed Hurdle earns 1.5 grade points, and the published GPA is cut, not rounded, at two decimals.
