CSU admissions GPA calculator

Apply CSU’s high-school A–G period and its own grade-10 honors cap.

Check what this tool covers

California high-school A–G semester coursework after grade 9. Completed grade-12 grades can count. College courses, repeats and non-semester calendars need separate review and are not supported here.

Ignore plus/minus and use 4/3/2/1/0. Up to 8 eligible honors semester bonuses count, with at most 2 from grade 10; no bonus for D/F. This is not UC’s 4-point grade-10 cap.

Current CSU first-year guidance; checked August 31, 2026. Policy version 2026-08-31.1. AI-assisted implementation; independent human review pending.

CHECK THE MATH

A worked example

Illustrative example: four grade-10 A semester grades, all approved honors, give (16 + 2) ÷ 4 = 4.50. The same eligible California-resident UC list gives (16 + 4) ÷ 4 = 5.00.
