About the QUT GPA System
Queensland University of Technology divides the sum of (unit credit points x grade) by the credit points of completed units. The MOPP glossary's example: four 12-credit-point units graded 7, 4, 6 and 3 give 240 / 48 = 5.
Why GPA Matters at QUT
Undergraduate awards with distinction need a GPA of 5.5 (6.0 for graduate diplomas and master's degrees), with at least 50% of the course's credit points completed at QUT. Honours classes use an honours GPA: Honours I 6.20 to 7.00, Honours IIA 5.65 to 6.199, Honours IIB 5.00 to 5.649 and Honours III below 5.00 for students completing after 1 January 2023. A University Medal needs an overall GPA of at least 6.8 for a bachelor degree of at least three years normal duration, with at least two years of full-time study at QUT.
QUT Grading Note
QUT grades on a 7-point numeric scale with published percentage ranges: 7 High Distinction (85%-100%), 6 Distinction (75%-84%), 5 Credit (65%-74%), 4 Pass (50%-64%), 3 Marginal Fail (40%-49%), 2 Fail (25-39%) and 1 Low Fail (fewer than 25%). The grade number is the GPA value, and a Withdrawn Fail (K) is calculated as 1.
QUT Accuracy Scope
GPAs are reported by course and include every QUT unit completed in the course and every attempt that received a numeric grade. Unfinalised results, S (Satisfactory) and U (Unsatisfactory) grades, units taken at another institution and exempt units (E) are left out. QUT states no rounding rule; this calculator shows two decimals.
GPA Tips for QUT Students
- Enter each unit's credit points; QUT's example uses 12-credit-point units.
- Enter a K (Withdrawn Fail) as 1.
- Keep every attempt: a failed unit and its repeat both count in the GPA.
Common GPA Mistakes at QUT
Treating a 3 as a pass. At QUT a 3 (40%-49%) is a Marginal Fail: you may be able to apply for supplementary assessment, but it counts 3 in the GPA as a fail.
