VTU CGPA — Frequently Asked Questions
What is the VTU CGPA to percentage formula?
Visvesvaraya Technological University uses a different formula depending on your scheme. 2021 / 2022 scheme — admitted 2021-22 or later: Percentage = CGPA × 10 — a CGPA of 8.5 equals 85.00%. 2015 / 2017 / 2018 scheme — admitted before 2021-22: Percentage = (CGPA − 0.75) × 10 — a CGPA of 8.5 equals 77.50%. Pick your scheme in the calculator above to convert your own CGPA.
What is the grading system at VTU?
VTU uses a 10-point grading scale. The highest grade is O (90-100 marks, 10 grade points) and the lowest passing grade is P.
Is this the official VTU formula?
This formula is based on VTU Official CGPA Standard Formula page (vtu.ac.in/en/cgpa-standard-formula/) plus VTU B.E./B.Tech Regulations 2022 (vtu.ac.in). Default formula here applies to VTU's 2021 and 2022 schemes (the current B.E./B.Tech regulations under which students admitted from 2021-22 onwards graduate). VTU's older 2015 / 2017 / 2018 schemes used Percentage = (CGPA − 0.75) × 10 — pick your scheme in the calculator above and the formula, thresholds and table all switch to match. The classification thresholds below are for the 2021/2022 schemes; the 2018-scheme equivalents are 7.75 (FCD), 6.75 (FC), 5.75 (SC), 4.75 (Pass). For official purposes, always verify with your college's examination department.
What CGPA do I need for distinction at VTU?
First Class with Distinction at VTU requires a CGPA of 7.00 or higher under the 2021/2022 scheme (equivalent to 70% via Percentage = CGPA × 10) AND every subject must be cleared on the first attempt — any backlog or supplementary clearance disqualifies the candidate from Distinction even after re-appearance success, per the VTU B.E./B.Tech Regulations 2022. First Class (without Distinction) needs CGPA 6.00 or higher; Second Class needs 5.00; Pass needs 4.00. Students on the older 2018 scheme should compare against the 7.75 / 6.75 / 5.75 / 4.75 thresholds because that scheme's formula subtracts 0.75 before multiplying.
How do I get an official VTU CGPA-to-percentage conversion certificate?
VTU does not issue a separate CGPA-to-percentage conversion certificate. The percentage is fixed by VTU's official formula: Percentage = CGPA × 10 for the 2021 and 2022 schemes (a CGPA of 8.5 is 85%), or (CGPA − 0.75) × 10 for the 2015, 2017 and 2018 schemes. When an employer or a foreign university wants the percentage on letterhead, the standard route is to compute it with the official formula and have your college principal certify it on the college letterhead; VTU's own CGPA standard formula notification (vtu.ac.in/en/cgpa-standard-formula) is the supporting reference. VTU grade cards and transcripts show CGPA, not a converted percentage.
Can I make a VTU CGPA to percentage conversion certificate online?
Yes. GradeKar generates a clean, printable VTU CGPA-to-percentage conversion certificate (PDF) using the official Visvesvaraya Technological University formula — it states your CGPA, the equivalent percentage, and cites the source regulation, ready to attach to job forms, PSU applications, transcripts, and abroad paperwork. It is a self-generated document (formula-based), not a university-issued certificate; for an officially stamped copy, request one from your examination department.
