What Is the Egypt 4.0 GPA Calculator?
Essential definitions, letter-to-point mappings, and systemic academic context.
Egyptian universities following credit hour regulations map letter grades to grade points from 0.00 to 4.00, coupled with Arabic academic classifications (ممتاز مع مرتبة الشرف / ممتاز / جيد جداً / جيد / مقبول / راسب).
Letter grades from A+ (4.0) down to D (1.0) determine graduation standing and Latin honors (مرتبة الشرف).
Standard credit-hour weighting applies across all faculties (Engineering, Medicine, Pharmacy, Business, Computer Science).

Official calculation defined by Egyptian university bylaws for credit-hour undergraduate programs.
Formula Terminology Glossary
| Term | Academic Definition | Formula / Value |
|---|---|---|
| Excellent (ممتاز) | GPA from 3.50 to 4.00 (Distinction). | 3.50 – 4.00 |
| Very Good (جيد جداً) | GPA from 3.00 to 3.49. | 3.00 – 3.49 |
| Good (جيد) | GPA from 2.50 to 2.99. | 2.50 – 2.99 |

Worked Calculation Example (Manual Verification)
Cairo University Faculty of Engineering semester schedule.
| Course Title | Letter Grade | Grade Points | Credit Hours | Quality Points |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Differential Equations | A | 4.00 | 3 | 12.00 |
| Fluid Mechanics | B+ | 3.30 | 3 | 9.90 |
| Thermodynamics | A- | 3.70 | 3 | 11.10 |
| Circuits & Electronics | B | 3.00 | 3 | 9.00 |
| Engineering Ethics | A | 4.00 | 3 | 12.00 |
| Total Summary | 15 Credits | 54.00 Total Quality Points | ||
Step-by-Step Arithmetic:
- Step 1: Convert grades to points: Diff Eq (4.0), Fluids (3.3), Thermo (3.7), Circuits (3.0), Ethics (4.0).
- Step 2: Multiply by 3 credit hours each.
- Step 3: Total Quality Points = 54.00 | Total Credits = 15.0.
- Step 4: Divide: 54.00 ÷ 15.0 = 3.60 GPA.
