About the ANU GPA System
The Australian National University multiplies each course's grade point value by its units, adds the results across your academic career and divides by the total units. ANU's example: eight graded courses worth 72 units give 300 / 72 = 4.167, with a CRS and a DA course left out and a not-completed (NCN) course counted as 0. Your GPA is published on your academic transcript.
Why GPA Matters at ANU
Under the Coursework Awards Rule 2024 an associate or bachelor degree is granted as an ungraded Pass. Honours degrees are classified First Class, Second Class Division A or B, or Third Class from honours grades (H1 80-100, H2A 70-79, H2B 60-69). A graduate diploma or coursework master's degree can be awarded with Commendation only with a weighted average mark of 80% or higher.
ANU Grading Note
ANU calculates the GPA on a 7-point scale: HD (80-100) 7, D (70-79) 6, CR (60-69) 5, P (50-59) 4 and PS (a pass at a supplementary exam, mark 50) 4; N (0-49), NCN and WN count 0. ANU's HD band starts at 80. Where a WAM is required, ANU uses the sum of mark times units divided by the total units, with NCN and WN at a nominal mark of zero; our WAM calculator (linked in the FAQ below) covers it.
ANU Accuracy Scope
One GPA covers your whole academic career, across all programs in it. Pass/fail courses, withdrawals without failure (WD, WL), CRS, deferred or pending results and credit (STI, STE) are left out, and so are pre-1994 grades. ANU calculates to three decimal points; this calculator shows two (4.167 in ANU's example shows as 4.17). No GPA is calculated for research programs, the MBBS, the MChD or the Graduate Diploma of Legal Practice. ANU's GPA table lists honours grades H1, H2A, H2B and H3 at 7, 6, 5 and 4 (with an asterisk the page does not explain): enter them as HD, D, CR and P. ANU's grading-scale page gives H3 as 50-59 and its assessment policy as 59 and below, so no H3 band is shown.
GPA Tips for ANU Students
- Enter a pass at a supplementary exam (PS) as 4, like a Pass.
- Enter NCN (not completed) and WN (withdrawn with failure) as 0 with their units.
- HD starts at 80 at ANU, so do not convert marks with an 85-for-HD table from another university.
Common GPA Mistakes at ANU
Keeping a separate GPA for each program. ANU gives one GPA per academic career: if you change programs within your undergraduate career, all your units stay in the same GPA.
