  1. 1

    Choose Semester GPA or CGPA

    Open the Semester GPA tab for one term's modules, or CGPA to combine multiple terms. Percentage mode is for rough planning only — Southampton degrees are classified (First, 2:1, 2:2).

  2. 2

    Add each module with credits

    Click "+ Add Course" and enter module titles from your Southampton transcript. Use CATS/credit weight exactly as listed — weighted averages depend on credit volume, not module count alone.

  3. 3

    Select your classification band

    Pick the letter or class band shown on your result slip. The calculator maps UK honours boundaries to points for averaging — verify against your department handbook.

  4. 4

    Review your weighted result

    The bottom bar shows your semester or cumulative figure. Use it to track progress toward a First or 2:1 — official classification is confirmed on your degree transcript.

About the Southampton degree calculator

South coast research university with UK honours boundaries on degree results. Pick your module marks, enter credits, and let the table handle grade points — the same boundaries Southampton 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 UK Honours. 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.

Southampton grading system

UK Degree Classification (Honours) is what Southampton prints on most transcripts. The top band is First Class (1st) (4.00 points). A fail (Fail) 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

Honours degrees are reported as a class (First, 2:1, 2:2, Third), not as a single “CGPA percentage”. Focus on weighted module averages here.

Frequently asked questions

How do I work out my degree classification at Southampton?
UK undergraduate degrees usually combine weighted module marks into an overall percentage, then map that to a class (First, 2:1, and so on). This page loads UK Degree Classification (Honours) so your grade points match the bands Southampton publishes — not a US-style 4.0 chart pulled from Google.
Can I convert Southampton grades to US GPA here?
Only as a rough planning exercise. UK honours classes do not convert cleanly to a 4.0 GPA without an official credential evaluation. Use this tool to sanity-check module averages and classification thresholds on your handbook scale.
What is the highest grade point on the Southampton scale?
On UK Degree Classification (Honours), the ceiling is 4.00 quality points (First Class (1st)). Hitting that across every credit is rare — one failed lab can pull the average down until you clear it.
Is this Southampton degree 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 Southampton, use the contact form with a link to the official handbook — we fix scales in batches.
