About the UST GWA calculator

Historic Manila university — weighted average and GPA for undergraduate programmes. Pick your subjects, enter credits, and let the table handle grade points — the same boundaries UST lists in its handbook. Need a different campus? Browse the country hub linked below for neighbouring universities.

How to use this calculator

  1. Start with the courses you are sure about; you can add or remove rows as you go.
  2. Double-check credit hours — a 2-credit lab and a 3-credit theory course should not be averaged like equal weights.
  3. The grading table on this page mirrors Philippines GWA. If a new handbook year changes boundaries, tell us via the contact form.
  4. Bookmark the page before exam season; it is faster than rebuilding the same spreadsheet every semester.

UST grading system

Philippines GWA / GPA (4.0) is what UST prints on most transcripts. The top band is A (4.00 points). A fail (F) usually counts as zero quality points until you pass the retake.

The math behind semester GPA and cumulative CGPA is the same across most universities — see our CGPA formula guide for a worked example. For broader planning tips, read the complete CGPA guide on the homepage.

Percentage conversion

GWA is credit-weighted 4.0 points. Raw exam scores are transmuted first — match the table your registrar published for the term.

Frequently asked questions

How is GWA computed at UST?
Philippine schools transmute raw marks to 4.0 points, then take a credit-weighted average. This page uses Philippines GWA / GPA (4.0) so you can rehearse the math before COR or portal results drop.
Is GWA the same as CGPA at UST?
Colloquially students say CGPA, but transcripts often print GWA or QPI. The calculation is still credit-weighted grade points — enter what your portal shows.
How do I combine semester GPAs into CGPA?
Weight each semester by its credit load: (SGPA₁ × credits₁ + SGPA₂ × credits₂ + …) ÷ total credits. CGPA mode on the calculator adds semester rows so you do not have to re-enter every subject.
What is the highest grade point on the UST scale?
On Philippines GWA / GPA (4.0), the ceiling is 4.00 quality points (A). Hitting that across every credit is rare — one failed lab can pull the average down until you clear it.
Is this UST GWA calculator free?
Yes. No account, no app install, and we do not upload your grades. Close the tab and the data is gone.
Who maintains this page?
My CGPA Calculator is run by students and alumni who got tired of generic CGPA widgets that ignore local scales. If you spot a wrong boundary for University of Santo Tomas, use the contact form with a link to the official handbook — we fix scales in batches.
