About the TP GPA System

Temasek Polytechnic is situated at its Tampines campus in eastern Singapore and is recognized for its strong design, IT, and applied sciences programmes. TP uses a 4.0 GPA scale and emphasizes project-based assessment across many of its diploma courses.

Why GPA Matters at TP

A competitive TP GPA of 3.5 or higher significantly improves your chances of admission to NUS, NTU, and SMU degree programmes. GPA also determines eligibility for TP merit scholarships, the Diploma with Merit distinction, and selection for overseas immersion trips.

TP Grading Note

TP grades diploma subjects (TP's word for modules) on a 4.0 scale. Z (Distinction) and A both carry 4.0, and a non-graded pass (P) carries 1.0. Subjects with no grade point, such as Pass, Fail or Pass with Commendation, are not counted.

TP Accuracy Scope

If your attendance falls below 85%, you can still sit the main exam but a pass is capped at P (1.0). When you retake a failed subject, the new grade replaces the F in your GPA. Confirm other rules on your school's page.

GPA Tips for TP Students

  • Design project and capstone modules at TP often carry more credit units than lecture-based modules, so invest proportionally more effort into them.
  • Front-load your core modules in earlier semesters so you can take lighter elective loads when specialization modules get harder in Year 3.

Common GPA Mistakes at TP

TP students sometimes back-load difficult core modules into later semesters, leaving less room to recover from a poor grade. Front-loading core modules gives you more semesters to compensate if one does not go well.

TP Grading System

Temasek Polytechnic uses a 4.0-point grading scale. The highest achievable GPA is 4.0, and letter grades are converted to grade points using the official TP grade table below. As a polytechnic, TP does not award honours classifications. Your cumulative GPA is the primary academic metric used for university admissions and scholarship applications.

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 TP GPA calculator above to project your CGPA based on expected grades.

TP Grade Points Used

Grade Grade Point Score Range
Z 4.00 80 and above, Distinction (up to the top 5% of a subject)
A 4.00 80 and above
B+ 3.50 75 to < 80
B 3.00 70 to < 75
C+ 2.50 65 to < 70
C 2.00 60 to < 65
D+ 1.50 55 to < 60
D 1.00 50 to < 55
P 1.00 50 and above, non-graded pass
F 0.00 Below 50

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the TP grading system?
Temasek Polytechnic grades subjects on a 4.0 GPA scale. Z (Distinction) and A both earn 4.0, B+ earns 3.5 and so on down to D at 1.0; a non-graded pass (P) earns 1.0 and F earns 0. Your cumulative GPA is the credit-weighted average of all graded subjects in your diploma.
What GPA do I need to enter university from TP?
It depends on the course. The universities' Indicative Grade Profiles show the GPAs of polytechnic students offered each course: in AY2025/26, 90% of those offered NUS Medicine had at least 3.87, NTU Computer Science 3.78, SMU Accountancy 3.71 and NUS Engineering 3.57, while NUS Nursing started at 3.18. See every course on our university IGP pages.
Can I use TP projections to plan university admission strategy?
Yes. Use projected GPA to test realistic grade targets, then match them against the admission profiles of your target courses.
What grading system does TP use?
Temasek Polytechnic uses a 4.0-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.

This page uses the following grade points for TP: Z=4.00, A=4.00, B+=3.50, B=3.00, C+=2.50, C=2.00, D+=1.50, D=1.00, P=1.00, F=0.00.
Is this TP calculator valid for every programme?
