HSC to GPA Calculator
Convert your predicted HSC marks to the US 4.0 GPA scale
What the HSC to GPA calculator does
The HSC to Grade Point Average (GPA) calculator converts your combined predicted HSC marks into a US GPA on a 4.0 scale.
This gives you a clear picture of where your academic candidacy stands against US applicants. It also shows how competitive you are now, and how competitive you can become with more preparation, for top US college admissions.
What is the HSC?
The Higher School Certificate (HSC) is the highest secondary school qualification in New South Wales, Australia. Students must complete at least 12 units of preliminary courses and 10 units of HSC courses, including English, to earn the HSC. Final HSC results combine school-based assessment marks with external examination marks.
What is a GPA?
US schools grade coursework using letters, such as A, B, or C. GPA measures those grades on a scale from 0 to 4.0. It is calculated by dividing the total grade points earned across all subjects by the total credit hours attempted.
How to use the HSC to GPA calculator
Enter your predicted mark out of 100 for each course, along with the number of units for that course.
Once you have your converted GPA, you have a clear baseline for building a competitive US college application. The next step is strengthening your academic profile through additional coursework, test preparation, or targeted tutoring support.
