GKS FAQs: Grades (GPA, CGPA) Qualifications and Conversion

 Hello everyone! Welcome to my blog.

Grades are one of the qualifications scholarship programs are looking into, especially fully-funded scholarships because they want to invest in you and they want to make sure that you are qualified and worth it for their offer.

In this topic, we will assess the grade qualifications by Global Scholarship Program (GKS).

Q: My General Weighted Average is 70%. Can I apply for this program?

A: No, because as stated in their qualifications, you should have at least 80% or above to qualify for the program. Anyone below 80% will be rejected automatically.


Conversion of Grades

Open new Excel file or Google Sheets. You can convert your grades by:

Step 1: List down all your grades with their corresponding units

Step 2: Multiply Grades with Units, then make another table for the product.

Step 3: Sum up Units and Sum up Total Product.

Step 4: Divide the (Sum of the Total product) with (Sum of Units) = GPA per sem.

To get CGPA, simply do an average or averaging of all your GPAs. :)


Note: If unable to convert, just place the percentile in the box provided and attach your University's Official Grading System. You may request this from your University.





Hope this helps!
