NTU GPA Calculator

The NTU GPA Calculator works out your semester GPA and CGPA at Nanyang Technological University in Singapore, where A+ earns 5.00 and B+ earns 4.00. GPA is each grade point times its Academic Units, added up and divided by total Academic Units.

Grades from NTU Academic Handbook for Undergraduate Studies, Cohort AY2026-27 (grading, CGPA and degree classification), checked 26 September 2026.

Which AU count in your NTU CGPA?

Use Academic Units (AU), not course counts. Include letter-graded attempts, including a counted F at zero points. Omit Pass/Fail, FGO-declared P/NR, LOA, EX and IP courses and their AU. Earned graduation AU and GPA-counted AU are different totals.

Try the handbook's weighted example

Clear the previous CGPA and AU Done fields. Use these five courses from Academic Handbook section 6.2.3, Example 1; add a fifth row to the calculator:

NTU handbook example: included grade points weighted by Academic Units
GradeAUPoints × AU
B33.50 × 3 = 10.5
B−33.00 × 3 = 9
C32.00 × 3 = 6
A45.00 × 4 = 20
D31.00 × 3 = 3

Semester GPA = 48.5 ÷ 16 = 3.03 on this calculator's two-decimal display. A simple average of the five grade points would not weight the 4-AU course correctly.

Add a previous record once

With prior CGPA 3.00 over 20 GPA-counted AU, enter 3.00 and 20 in Your Info. Projected CGPA = (60 + 48.5) ÷ 36 = 3.01. Do not re-enter courses already inside that prior total. Use unrounded points from your transcript for the most exact figure.

A retake does not erase a counted F

If a 3-AU F remains counted and the retake earns B+ for 3 AU, include both attempts: (0 + 12) ÷ 6 = 2.00. If the F is already in your prior CGPA, add only the new attempt. Remove an old attempt only when NTU has officially excluded it, not simply because you passed the retake.

FGO and earlier freshmen exemptions

NTU's expanded FGO applies from AY2025/26 Semester 2. The university says previously covered freshmen exemptions are converted into FGO declarations and remain excluded. Use your adjusted NTU record before projecting: this calculator does not select FGO courses, check quota or minimum letter-graded AU, submit declarations, or remove a course from an existing cumulative total.

For a target using the same NTU scale and included-AU basis, use the GPA target calculator. An admissions question is different: the NTU indicative grade profile describes past entrants, not your NTU undergraduate CGPA or a guaranteed offer.

Inputs, formula and exclusions checked 9 October 2026 against the AY2026/27 academic handbook, sections 6.1–6.3 and NTU's expanded FGO notice. Follow the rules and adjusted record for your own cohort.

About the NTU GPA System

NTU grades undergraduate courses on a 5.00 CGPA scale with letter grades from A+ to F. Known for its strength in engineering, computing, and physical sciences, NTU operates on a semester system, and Pass/Fail courses do not factor into CGPA. In several colleges the Final Year Project grade also decides whether you can receive the highest honours.

Why GPA Matters at NTU

NTU degree classification is based on CGPA, with Honours (Highest Distinction) at 4.50 and above; engineering, computing and science programmes also set a minimum Final Year Project grade for it.

NTU Grading Note

NTU grades undergraduate courses on a 5.00-point scale and reports a Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA). Credits are called Academic Units (AU).

What Counts in Your NTU GPA

Pass/Fail courses, courses declared under the Flexible Grading Option (FGO) and grades such as EX or IP are left out of the CGPA. A counted letter-graded F stays included after a retake unless NTU has officially excluded it, including applicable FGO or earlier freshmen exemptions. Use your adjusted record and cohort handbook.

GPA Tips for NTU Students

  • Identify which courses in your programme are graded Pass/Fail early on. They do not affect your CGPA and should not be included in manual calculations.
  • Honours (Highest Distinction) also needs at least a B+ for the Final Year Project in most engineering and computing programmes, and at least an A- in most science programmes, so plan your FYP as carefully as your CGPA.
  • The Flexible Grading Option (FGO), which replaced the S/U option from AY2024-25, lets you take up to 24 AU of courses out of your CGPA on a four-year programme (21 AU on a three-year programme). Declarations cannot be reversed.

Common GPA Mistakes at NTU

Students frequently forget to leave Pass/Fail and FGO-declared courses out of their CGPA calculation. These courses carry academic units but no grade points. A counted letter-graded F stays in CGPA after a retake unless officially excluded; do not count a prior attempt twice or undo an approved FGO or freshmen exclusion.

NTU Grading System

Nanyang Technological University uses a 5.0-point grading scale. The highest achievable GPA is 5.0, and letter grades are converted to grade points using the official NTU grade table below. NTU awards degree classifications based on cumulative GPA thresholds, with Honours (Highest Distinction) requiring a CGPA of 4.50 or above.

Each module grade earns a specific number of grade points, which are then weighted by credit units to compute your semester GPA and cumulative GPA (CGPA). Use the NTU GPA calculator above to project your CGPA based on expected grades.

Frequently Asked Questions

What GPA do you need for NTU First Class Honours?

Under NTU's current academic handbook, the top class is Honours (Highest Distinction), which needs a CGPA of 4.50 or above out of 5.0. Honours (Distinction) needs 4.00, Honours (Merit) 3.50 and Honours 3.00. Most engineering and computing programmes also need at least a B+ in the Final Year Project for Highest Distinction, and College of Science programmes at least an A-.

How is NTU CGPA calculated?

NTU CGPA is the AU-weighted average of every letter-graded course you have attempted, including counted failed attempts unless officially excluded. Multiply each grade point by its academic units (AU), add them up, then divide by the total GPA-counted AU. Pass/Fail courses and courses declared under the Flexible Grading Option (FGO) are left out.

What is a good GPA at NTU?

A CGPA of 4.00 and above puts you in the Honours (Distinction) range, and 4.50 and above in the Honours (Highest Distinction) range. The Dean's List needs a GPA of at least 4.50 and a place in the top 5% of your cohort.

Can I use this NTU calculator if my curriculum has pass/fail modules?

Yes. Enter only letter-graded courses: Pass/Fail courses and courses you declare under the Flexible Grading Option (FGO) are left out of the CGPA.

What grading system does NTU use?

Nanyang Technological University uses a 5.0-point grading scale. Each letter grade corresponds to a specific grade point value, and your cumulative GPA (CGPA) is computed as the credit-weighted average of all module grade points.

Which NTU grade points are used on this page?

This page uses the following grade points for NTU: A+=5.00, A=5.00, A-=4.50, B+=4.00, B=3.50, B-=3.00, C+=2.50, C=2.00, D+=1.50, D=1.00, F=0.00.

Which courses count in a NTU GPA?
