Transcript
Courses from any country, in one record. Set each row's system separately, then read the whole thing in any other. Nothing leaves your browser.
A working equivalence for shortlisting and sanity-checking, not an evaluation anyone accepts. Where a checklist names an evaluator, that body's number is the only one that counts, and two evaluators reading one transcript can return two numbers.

Why a record and not another calculator
Most grade tools answer one question once: you type a number, you get a number, you leave. That is fine when the question really is one number. It is useless the moment your education has more than one shape to it - a year abroad, a transfer, a foreign bachelor's feeding a domestic master's application - because the interesting arithmetic is across systems, not inside one.
This page holds the whole record instead. Each row carries its own grading system, so a Danish 12 and a 4.0-scale A can sit in the same transcript without either being mangled into the other first. The average is computed once, honestly, and then read into whichever system you need it in this afternoon.
What the number means, exactly
Each grade is placed proportionally between its own scale's pass line and its best grade. That gives a position: 1.0 is the top of that country's range, 0 is its pass line, below 0 is a fail. The record's position is those positions averaged and weighted by credits, and reading it into a target system replays that position into the target's own range. It is the modified Bavarian formula's logic, generalized across 81 systems, and it is the same method the single-grade converter prints on its face.
The property that makes this safe to use: when every row is in one system, the answer is exactly the ordinary credit-weighted average, because position is a straight-line function of the grade. The honest method costs nothing in the ordinary case, so there is no version of this page that trades accuracy for breadth.
The part no converter can do for you
Where a scale's own maximum is almost never awarded, interpolating to it inflates every conversion that passes through. UK honours marks are the standard example, and this site caps them at 76 rather than 100 on documented evidence, because seventeen UK admissions tables put a German 1.5 at a First. That kind of correction is invisible in a result and decisive in an application. Every scale here shows its own numbers, and differences are published rather than quietly patched.
Questions this page gets asked
Does my transcript leave my computer?
No. Every course you add is held in your own browser's local storage and the arithmetic runs on your machine. There is no account, no upload and no server copy - the same as every other page on this site. Clearing your browser data clears the record, which is why the share link exists: it carries the whole transcript inside the address itself, so you can mail it to yourself as a backup without anything being stored anywhere.
Can I mix courses from different countries in one record?
That is what this page is for. Set each row's system individually: a semester on exchange in Denmark sits next to your home courses on a 4.0 scale, and the record reads correctly as a whole. Most converters make you pick one system for everything, which is precisely wrong for the people who need converting most - exchange students, transfer students and international applicants.
How is an average across different systems computed?
Each grade is placed proportionally between its own scale's pass line and its best grade, giving a position on that scale. The record's position is those positions averaged, weighted by credits. Reading it into a target system replays that position into the target's own range - the modified Bavarian formula's logic, generalized, and the same method the converter prints on its face. When every row is in one system this reduces exactly to the ordinary credit-weighted average, so nothing is distorted in the ordinary case.
Is this an official conversion?
No, and no free calculator produces one. This is a working equivalence for shortlisting and sanity-checking. When an admissions checklist names WES, ECE or another NACES member, that body's evaluation is the only number that counts and it is computed from verified documents by its own unpublished country tables. See WES iGPA vs GradeKiln for what that difference actually is, and WES vs ECE for why two evaluators reading one transcript return two numbers.
What does the target average tool do?
It answers the question every student actually asks near the end of a degree: given what is already on the record, what do the remaining credits have to average to finish at a given number? Enter the credits still to come and the figure you want, and it returns the required average as a grade in your chosen system, or tells you plainly that the target is out of reach - which is an answer too, and earlier than the alternative.
