University of Michigan Grade Translator: Letter, Points

Use this University of Michigan grade converter to move between the published grade labels, point values used in its 4-point scale. It is designed to help you understand what a result means before you calculate GPA or plan your next step.

How to read the grading scale at University of Michigan

This converter is built around the published 4-point scale used by University of Michigan. The highest listed grade is A+, worth 4 points. In this scale, the lowest listed passing grade is D-, worth 0.7 points.

Because this grading system includes plus/minus distinctions, the converter helps show how smaller grade shifts translate into different point values. This published scale focuses on grade labels and point values, so the converter is designed around those entries.

Some different grade labels may map to the same point value. For example, A+ and A both map to 4.
