Princeton GPA policy: no official GPA
Princeton states that it does not calculate official grade point averages. An application service may request a separate calculation, but that is not a Princeton-issued GPA.
Official policy checked 2026-08-31: no official GPA
What Princeton’s official policy says
Princeton’s financial-aid office uses course-grade and completion measures rather than an official GPA. Do not apply an invented 4.0 scale to determine academic standing, aid eligibility or an official transcript GPA. If an application asks for GPA, use its instructions and consult Princeton about how to report the record.
