About the Monash GPA System
Monash multiplies each grade value by the unit's credit points, adds the results and divides by the total credit points attempted. Its example of nine units (6 to 24 credit points each) gives 229.80 / 78 = 2.946; the withdrawn fail still adds its 6 credit points. Your GPA appears in WES, in the Student Portal and on your academic record.
Why GPA Matters at Monash
Both the 4-point GPA and the WAM appear on your academic record. Honours grades come from weighted marks, not the GPA: for students who began an honours degree from 1 January 2021 they are H1 80 to 100, H2A 70 to below 80, H2B 60 to below 70 and a Pass grade 50 to below 60 (four-year honours degrees use the WAM; one-year honours weights thesis units as the faculty sets). Monash's GPA page says other institutions can use a different scale, such as seven points, and that you should ask them to convert a Monash GPA.
Monash Grading Note
Monash calculates its GPA on a 4-point scale: High Distinction (80-100) 4.0, Distinction (70-79) 3.0, Credit (60-69) 2.0 and Pass (50-59) 1.0. A Fail (N) or Hurdle Fail (NH) still counts 0.3, a Withdrawn Fail (WN) 0.0, and Near Pass (NP, only for units with a census date before 15 February 2010) 0.7. Monash also calculates a WAM out of 100 that weights first-year units at 0.5; for that, use our WAM calculator (linked in the FAQ below).
Monash Accuracy Scope
All grades count, including fails and repeated units. SFR, NE, NAS, WI, PGO, NPGO and WNGO are left out. Monash calculates the GPA to three decimal places; this calculator shows two, so its example of 2.946 shows as 2.95. The GPA is calculated for award courses started from semester one, 2008, and not for research master's or PhD courses. Monash University Malaysia's CGPA uses other grade values (it has its own page on this site).
GPA Tips for Monash Students
- Enter each unit's credit points as its credits; Monash's example uses 6-, 12- and 24-point units.
- Enter a failed unit and its repeat as two separate units: both stay in the GPA.
- Include a Withdrawn Fail (WN) at 0.0 with its credit points.
Common GPA Mistakes at Monash
Treating a fail as zero. At Monash a Fail (N) or Hurdle Fail (NH) counts 0.3, and only a Withdrawn Fail (WN) counts 0.0.
