Schoology GPA Calculator

Schoology GPA Calculator

Calculate the GPA Schoology doesn't show — with your school's own scale, credits, and bonuses.

Your courses

Enter final course grades. GPA comes from your school's SIS or your school's own calculation — not from Schoology.

Preloaded: A in AP (5.0 with the example bonus) + B regular (3.0) → Weighted GPA 4.00. Switch the method to Simple to see 3.50.

Why Schoology doesn't show your GPA

No Schoology documentation reviewed shows a native GPA display or GPA calculation. GPA is computed by the school's SIS (for example PowerSchool) or by third-party tools — not by Schoology itself as far as the sources show. Claims of a “GPA display setting” in Schoology are unverified; no documentation reviewed confirms such a setting. That is why students look it up elsewhere.

The methods

  • Simple — average of grade points (A=4, B=3, …), no credit weighting.
  • Simple Percent — average of percentages, no credit weighting.
  • Weighted — credit-weighted grade points, plus course bonuses for Honors/AP/IB.
  • Weighted Percent — credit-weighted percentages.

Schoology does not define which method applies — your school does. Pick it above.

Scales and bonuses are school-set

Schools create their own scales and bonus tables. One school's published table gives A+ 4.5 and A− 3.75 — another school's may differ entirely. The +0.5 honors / +1.0 AP defaults above are a common example, not Schoology's rule. Enter your school's values.

Common mistakes

  • Multiplying weights by grades and calling it GPA. That is a weighted course percentage, not a grade-point average. One site's “0.36 → GPA 3.6” example makes exactly this error.
  • Assuming one bonus table. Honors/AP bonuses are school-set.
  • Mixing methods. Simple (3.50) and Weighted (4.00) differ on the same grades.
  • Ignoring credits. Weighted methods weight by credit hours; Simple methods don't.
  • Expecting Schoology to show it. Check your SIS, transcript, or school — or compute it here.

Schoology GPA Calculator FAQ

Why doesn't Schoology show my GPA?

No Schoology documentation reviewed shows a native GPA display or GPA calculation. GPA is computed by the school's SIS (for example PowerSchool) or by third-party tools — not by Schoology itself as far as the sources show. This calculator computes it from your course grades.

How is GPA calculated from Schoology grades?

Convert each course's final grade to grade points on your school's scale, then either average them (Simple) or weight by credits and add course bonuses (Weighted). Schoology does not define the method — your school does — so pick the method above that matches your school.

What is weighted GPA?

Weighted GPA weights each course's grade points by its credits and adds course-level bonuses for Honors/AP/IB courses per your school's scale. Unweighted (Simple) GPA averages grade points equally across courses.

Do honors and AP courses add GPA points?

Only if your school's scale says so. Weighted methods add the bonus your school configured; unweighted (Simple) methods do not. Enter your school's bonus values above — the +0.5/+1.0 defaults are a common example, not Schoology's rule.

Does GPA use credits?

Weighted methods weight by credit hours. Simple methods do not — they average across courses equally. A 1-credit course counts as much as a 0.5-credit course under Simple, but twice as much under Weighted.

Where does my official GPA come from?

Your school's SIS (for example PowerSchool) or your school's own calculation — not Schoology. Where a sync exists, the SIS grade is the record. Use this calculator to estimate it, and confirm the official number with your school.
