What this predictor solves

This tool helps you answer two planning questions before finals: what your cumulative GPA may become, and what semester GPA you need to hit a specific target. It is ideal for scholarship planning, honors eligibility checks, and graduation goal tracking.

Core formulas

Projected Cumulative GPA = (Current GPA x Completed Credits + Expected Semester GPA x Semester Credits) / (Completed Credits + Semester Credits)

Required Semester GPA = (Target Cumulative GPA x Total Credits After Semester - Current Quality Points) / Semester Credits

If you want to build expected semester GPA from individual courses, start with the Semester Grade Calculator.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does this semester GPA predictor work?
It combines your current cumulative quality points with expected semester quality points, then divides by total credits. It also computes the required semester GPA to reach a target cumulative GPA.
Can required semester GPA be above 4.0?
Yes. If the required value exceeds 4.0, your target is not reachable in one semester under a standard 4.0 scale.
Is this official transcript GPA?
No. This is a planning estimate. Official GPA may differ based on institutional rules for repeats, withdrawals, and grade replacement.
