Illustrative Canadian Percentage-to-GPA Preset (4.0 cap)

This chart shows one illustrative way to map percentage marks to letter grades and 4.0 GPA points. Canadian universities do not share one official percentage-to-GPA conversion — UBC tells students to use the evaluating body's scale when converting for admissions, and Waterloo, Guelph, McGill, and others publish their own tables.

Letter / Grade	Percentage	GPA Points
A+	90–100%	4
A	85–89%	4
A-	80–84%	3.7
B+	77–79%	3.3
B	73–76%	3
B-	70–72%	2.7
C+	67–69%	2.3
C	63–66%	2
C-	60–62%	1.7
D	50–59%	1
F	0–49%	0

Important notes

Label this as a planning preset, not a “standard Canadian conversion.”
Quebec CEGEP and some programs may use different scales.
McMaster uses a separate 12-point GPA — use /mcmaster-gpa-to-us-gpa with McMaster's lookup, not 12 ÷ 3.
If your transcript awards A+ = 4.33 quality points, open the Canada 4.33 reference page.
