What is GPA / Percentage Converter?

Nepal's education system uses different grading scales at different levels, and converting between them is a constant headache for students, parents, and institutions. The SEE (Secondary Education Examination, formerly SLC) uses a GPA scale of 0.0 to 4.0 where 3.6+ is A+. NEB (National Examination Board) for classes 11 and 12 also uses a GPA system but with slightly different grade point mappings. Tribhuvan University (TU), the largest university in Nepal, traditionally uses percentage-based grading for many of its programs, while newer universities like Kathmandu University (KU) and Pokhara University (PU) use GPA scales. This creates a real problem: when a TU graduate with 68% applies for a job that requires 'minimum GPA 3.0,' they need to know their equivalent GPA. When an SEE student with 3.2 GPA wants to know their percentage equivalent for a scholarship application that asks for marks in percentage, they need a reliable conversion. This GPA & Percentage Converter handles conversions across Nepal's major grading systems — SEE, NEB +2, and TU — using the official grade-point mappings published by the respective examination boards. It is heavily used during admission season (Baisakh–Jestha) when students apply to colleges and universities that may use a different grading system than their previous institution. Scholarship applications from organizations like USAID, Fulbright, and various INGOs operating in Nepal often require GPA on a 4.0 scale, making this tool essential for TU percentage-holders applying to international programs. The converter also shows the letter grade (A+, A, B+, B, C+, C, D, E) alongside the numerical conversion for complete clarity.

How to Use GPA / Percentage Converter

1

Select your grading system

Choose whether you are converting from SEE (class 10), NEB +2 (class 11–12), or Tribhuvan University grading. Each system has its own grade-point mapping.

2

Enter your GPA or percentage

Type your GPA (e.g., 3.4) or percentage (e.g., 72%). The tool detects the input type and converts in the appropriate direction.

3

View the converted result

See the equivalent value in the other system — GPA to percentage or percentage to GPA — along with the corresponding letter grade (A+, A, B+, etc.).

4

Use for applications and forms

Copy the converted value to use in scholarship applications, job forms, or college admission documents that require a specific grading format.

Tips & Best Practices

  • 1

    When applying to international universities or scholarships, always mention which Nepali grading system your GPA is from — a 3.2 in SEE and a 3.2 in TU mean different things to foreign admissions offices.

  • 2

    For TU students: many older TU programs use percentage marks, not GPA. If a form asks for GPA and you only have percentages, this tool gives you the standard conversion.

  • 3

    NEB +2 students applying to Bachelor's programs at KU or PU should convert their NEB GPA to percentage first if the admission form specifically asks for percentage.

  • 4

    During Loksewa (Public Service Commission) applications, some posts require minimum percentage scores — convert your GPA here before filling the form to ensure you meet the cutoff.

Frequently Asked Questions

What GPA scale does Nepal's SEE examination use?

SEE uses a 4.0 GPA scale with letter grades: A+ (3.6–4.0), A (3.2–3.6), B+ (2.8–3.2), B (2.4–2.8), C+ (2.0–2.4), C (1.6–2.0), D (1.2–1.6), and E (0.8–1.2). Below 0.8 is considered non-graded (NG).

How do I convert my Tribhuvan University percentage to GPA?

TU traditionally uses percentage-based grading. The standard conversion used by most institutions maps Distinction (80%+) ≈ 4.0 GPA, First Division (60–79%) ≈ 3.0–3.9, Second Division (45–59%) ≈ 2.0–2.9, and Third Division (32–44%) ≈ 1.0–1.9. This tool applies these standard mappings.

Is the NEB grading system the same as the SEE system?

They are similar but not identical. Both use a 4.0 GPA scale, but NEB has its own grade point distribution and some subjects are weighted differently. The overall calculation methodology follows NEB's published guidelines, which differ slightly from SEE's in how individual subject GPAs aggregate to a final GPA.

Which conversion should I use for Loksewa (PSC) applications?

Loksewa applications typically require percentage marks. If you have a GPA from SEE or NEB, convert it using this tool and use the percentage equivalent. Always refer to the specific Loksewa vacancy notice for their stated minimum eligibility criteria.

Can I use this for Kathmandu University (KU) or Pokhara University (PU) grades?

This tool focuses on SEE, NEB, and TU grading systems, which cover the majority of Nepali students. KU and PU have their own GPA systems. For KU/PU conversions, check your university's official grading policy, though the general 4.0 scale conversion can serve as a reasonable approximation.
