How the formula works

University of Salzburg sources define module total grades as weighted averages of courses and use grade point averages weighted by ECTS credits for official course-place allocation rules. For semester GPA, each GPA-counted course is converted to quality points by multiplying grade points by credits. The semester GPA is the total quality points divided by total GPA-counted credits, then rounded with standard rounding to 2 decimal places. The updated CGPA combines the student's existing quality points with this semester's quality points, then rounds with standard rounding to 2 decimal places.

Pass/fail and non-GPA grades are handled from the University of Salzburg config: supported pass grades are excluded from GPA points. Repeat-course handling uses this rule: University of Salzburg official sources define the 1-5 scale and/or ECTS-weighted average, but repeat, replacement, failed-attempt, and programme-specific subject-grade rules were not clear enough for automatic replacement. Repeated courses are therefore flagged for manual review.

Worked example

Suppose a student starts with 3.00 CGPA after 30 completed credits and takes these University of Salzburg courses:

  • Course 13 credits x 1 (1.00 points)
  • Course 23 credits x 4 (4.00 points)
  • Course 33 credits x 5 (5.00 points)

The semester GPA is 3.33 and the updated CGPA is 3.08 using this university's rounding rules.

FAQ

Does this calculator use a generic Austria GPA formula?

No. This page uses the grading configuration for University of Salzburg. Another university in Austria can have different grade points, rounding rules, or pass/fail handling.

How is semester GPA calculated at University of Salzburg?

The calculator multiplies each GPA-counted grade point by its credits, adds the quality points, divides by GPA-counted credits, and applies standard rounding to 2 decimal places.

Are pass/fail courses included in GPA?

Pass/fail grades marked as non-GPA in the University of Salzburg config are excluded from GPA points, although credit may still be earned when the grade allows it.

What about repeated courses?

University of Salzburg official sources define the 1-5 scale and/or ECTS-weighted average, but repeat, replacement, failed-attempt, and programme-specific subject-grade rules were not clear enough for automatic replacement. Repeated courses are therefore flagged for manual review.
