TU / KU / PU GPA Calculator Nepal

What does this TU/KU/PU GPA calculator do?

This Nepal university GPA calculator is built for students who need a quick but clear SGPA or CGPA estimate from course credits and letter grades. It supports common scales for Tribhuvan University, Kathmandu University, Pokhara University, and Purbanchal University. It also includes a manual grade point option because universities in Nepal do not always use one identical table across every faculty, batch, and program.

SGPA is normally the grade point average for one semester. CGPA is the cumulative grade point average across semesters or across a program. The formula looks simple, but the credit hour is very important. A 4-credit course affects GPA more than a 1-credit lab. That is why this calculator asks for each course credit and letter grade instead of only asking for the average letter.

यो calculator ले course credit र grade point लाई multiply गर्छ। त्यसलाई सबै subjects/courses मा जोडेर total credit ले भाग गर्छ। यदि previous CGPA र completed credits हाल्नु भयो भने calculator ले current semester SGPA लाई previous record संग combine गरेर estimated new CGPA पनि देखाउँछ। This is useful for planning, scholarship checks, semester target setting, and understanding how much one course can change your GPA.

For university-specific context, Pokhara University publishes a four-point letter grade system on its academic system page. Kathmandu University departments publish grade-point examples in their student evaluation pages. Purbanchal University’s newer grading system is also summarized in education references such as grading system. Use those references for context, but always follow your own university transcript or official syllabus for final decisions.

Formula used

Worked example

1. Accounting course point = 3.7 × 3 = 11.1.
2. Economics course point = 3.3 × 3 = 9.9.
3. Statistics course point = 3.0 × 3 = 9.0.
4. Total points = 30.0 and total credits = 9.
5. SGPA = 30.0 ÷ 9 = 3.33.

Final answer: the estimated semester GPA is 3.33.

Common mistakes and limitations

The biggest mistake is assuming that TU, KU, Pokhara University, and Purbanchal University all use the same letter grade table. They do not always do that. Some faculties use updated rules, some departments publish their own pass criteria, and older percentage systems may not convert cleanly into GPA. Another mistake is ignoring credit hours. A low grade in a high-credit course can reduce SGPA more than a low grade in a small-credit course. Also remember that this page is not a transcript generator. It is a planning calculator. For official work, use your university marksheet, transcript, exam controller notice, or faculty handbook.

Frequently asked questions

• Can this calculate TU, KU, Pokhara University, and Purbanchal University GPA?
  Yes. The calculator supports common university grade-point scales and also allows manual grade points. Because Nepal universities and programs may use different rules, the safest option is to choose your university scale or enter the exact grade point printed in your syllabus or transcript.
• What is the SGPA formula?
  SGPA = total credit points divided by total credit hours. Credit points are calculated by multiplying the grade point of each course by the credit hour of that course.
• What is the difference between SGPA and CGPA?
  SGPA is normally for one semester. CGPA combines semesters or a full program. If you enter previous CGPA and previous completed credits, this calculator can combine the previous record with the current semester.
• Why does TU GPA differ by program?
  Tribhuvan University has several faculties, institutes, yearly systems, semester systems, and updated evaluation practices. That is why a single universal TU percentage-to-GPA conversion can be misleading. Use official grade points when available.
• Is KU grading the same in every department?
  Kathmandu University commonly uses a 4-point letter grade system, but departments can publish their own evaluation tables and pass requirements. Check your school or department notice when a decision matters.
• Does PU mean Pokhara University or Purbanchal University?
  In Nepal, PU can be ambiguous. This calculator includes separate choices for Pokhara University and Purbanchal University because their published grade-point tables are not always the same.
• Can I use this for scholarship or foreign admission?
  Use it for planning and checking only. For applications, use the GPA, CGPA, transcript, or conversion statement issued by your university or the receiving institution.
