About the KCL CGPA Calculator
Central London Russell Group university with First / 2:1 / 2:2 / Third classifications.
King's College London (KCL) is a central London Russell Group university where undergraduate honours degrees are classified as First, 2:1, 2:2, or Third from weighted module percentages. Law, nursing, war studies, and STEM programmes at King's share the same broad UK boundaries but use different assessment mixes. This page helps KCL students estimate classification — not a fictional semester CGPA. Wrong scale? Tell us — or browse more United Kingdom calculators.
What KCL students should know
King's modules are credit-rated under the UK framework — many programmes use 15-credit units. Clinical programmes may include pass/fail placements that sit outside honours classification averages. Students applying to the Bar, NHS bands, or City graduate schemes should cite official KCL degree class on transcripts.
How to use this calculator
- Pull module marks and credits from King's Student Records (KEATS/Student Records).
- Weight years and modules per your faculty classification scheme — later years often dominate.
- Check your cumulative average against UK honours thresholds in this calculator.
- Request official KCL transcripts from Student Records for verified classification.
KCL grading system
King's follows UK honours: First (70%+), 2:1 (60–69%), 2:2 (50–59%), Third (40–49%), Fail (below 40%). Some programmes apply borderline uplift rules — a 69.5% might be reviewed upward depending on examination board policy.
The math behind semester GPA and cumulative CGPA is the same across most universities — see our CGPA formula guide for a worked example. For broader planning tips, read the complete CGPA guide on the homepage or browse student articles on the blog.
Percentage conversion
KCL certificates and transcripts show degree class. UK employers expect "2:1 in [subject]" rather than a percentage derived from CGPA multiplication.
