KU GPA Calculator 2083 - Kathmandu University CGPA Calculator | TotalGPA
Calculate your Kathmandu University (KU) CGPA. KU follows a rigorous grading system where a minimum of 50% (Grade C) is required to pass individual subjects, making accurate calculation critical.
How to Calculate KU CGPA
- Add your theory and lab/practical credits separately if graded independently.
- Select your KU letter grade (A to F). Note that KU uses a 4.0 scale but with unique percentage boundaries.
- The tool applies KU's specific grade point weights.
Worked Example (KU Engineering)
Calculus (3 cr): A- (3.7), Physics (3 cr): B+ (3.3), Programming (3 cr): A (4.0), Eng Drawing (2 cr): B (3.0), Lab (1 cr): A (4.0). Quality Points = 11.1 + 9.9 + 12.0 + 6.0 + 4.0 = 43.0. SGPA = 43.0 ÷ 12 credits = 3.58 SGPA.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does Kathmandu University calculate GPA?
KU uses a 4.0 credit-hour grading system. GPA = sum of (grade point × credit hours) for all courses divided by total credit hours. KU uses an absolute grading scale — meaning your grade depends on your actual marks, not relative performance against classmates.
What is the minimum pass grade at Kathmandu University?
KU requires a minimum of 50% (Grade C, 2.0 GPA) in each subject to pass. This is stricter than TU's 40% minimum. Students who fail a subject may attempt it again in compartment exams — typically held within a month after regular end-semester exams.
How is KU different from TU grading?
KU has more grade bands than TU and a stricter 50% pass threshold (vs TU's 40%). KU also includes the C- (1.7) and D+/D grades in its scale. The formula is the same — credit-weighted GPA — but grade points differ at the middle ranges.
How to convert KU GPA to percentage?
Multiply your KU GPA by 25 for an approximate percentage. For example, KU CGPA 3.6 ≈ 90%. This is a standard approximation used for reference. For official submissions, always use your KU transcript.
