About the PU CGPA Calculator

Pakistan's oldest university with its own published grade point table.

University of the Punjab (PU) in Lahore is Pakistan's oldest university, with faculties spanning arts, sciences, law, and engineering across Old Campus and New Campus. PU publishes its own grade point table on a 4.0 scale — similar to HEC but with PU-specific cut-offs where A starts at 85%, not 90%. This calculator uses PU's exact letter-to-point mapping for accurate semester and cumulative GPA. Wrong scale? Tell us — or browse more Pakistan calculators.

What PU students should know

PU serves one of the largest student populations in the country — results processing can take time across faculties. Credit structures differ between BA, BSc, LLB, and engineering programmes. Affiliated colleges follow PU grading regulations; always enter letters from your official PU marksheet, not informal estimates from classmates at other Lahore universities.

How to use this calculator

  1. Select Semester GPA and enter each paper with credits from your PU grade report.
  2. Choose PU letter grades — A = 4.00 (85–100), A- = 3.70 (80–84), F below 50 = 0.00.
  3. Switch to CGPA for cumulative standing — weight each semester by total credits completed.
  4. For PPSC, government job, or higher-study forms, attach official PU transcripts.

PU grading system

PU assigns A = 4.00 (85–100), A- = 3.70 (80–84), B+ = 3.30 (75–79), down to D = 1.00 (50–54), and F = 0.00 below 50%. The 85% threshold for A is lower than strict HEC tables — a strong PU transcript may show more A grades than equivalent marks at NUST.

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

PU marksheets may show percentage alongside letter grades depending on programme. For CGPA-only transcripts, contact PU examinations for official conversion rather than using informal multipliers.
