We strongly recommend confirming grade conversions directly with the university, college, or employer you are applying to, or using an accredited credential evaluation service such as WES or ECE.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I use this calculator?
Enter each course or module name, select the University level, then choose your grade (0–10) from the dropdown. Add ECTS credits for a credit-weighted GPA. Your US GPA equivalent updates automatically.
How is the GPA calculated?
Spanish university grades (0–10 scale) are mapped to US GPA points following GPACalculator.net and Scholaro guidance. With credits entered, courses are weighted proportionally; without credits, all courses count equally.
Are these conversions official?
Conversions follow GPACalculator.net and Scholaro Spain documentation, which are widely referenced for US admissions. The Spanish university scale uses the same 0–10 system as secondary school. Always confirm the methodology with your target institution.
Who uses this tool?
Spanish graduates applying to US postgraduate programmes; expats and digital nomads in the US presenting a Spanish university degree to an employer; job seekers who need a GPA equivalent for a US-format resume; and parents wanting to understand their child's university grades in an American context.
What is a good GPA for US graduate admission?
Most US graduate programmes require a 3.0+ GPA. A Spanish university grade of 7+ (Notable) converts to 3.0–3.3. A grade of 9–10 (Sobresaliente / Matrícula de Honor) converts to 4.0 — highly competitive for any US programme.
