Old Bahria scale still online. An older table (A 87 to 100 at 4.0, B+ 80 to 86 at 3.5, B 72 to 79 at 3.0, and so on) still appears on archive.bahria.edu.pk and bui.edu.pk. It does not apply to current students. This calculator uses the 2026 handbook.

Worked example: Bahria semester
| Course | Credit hours | Marks | Grade | Quality points |

| Total | 15 | 37.67 |
GPA = 37.67 ÷ 15 = 2.51.
Courses 2 and 3 are C+ or below, which Bahria allows you to repeat. If you repeat and improve, only the highest grade counts. Use the CGPA calculator to plan the effect on your CGPA.
Questions people ask
What is the Bahria University grading system?
A 85 and above (4.00), A- 80 to 84 (3.67), B+ 75 to 79 (3.33), B 71 to 74 (3.00), B- 68 to 70 (2.67), C+ 64 to 67 (2.33), C 60 to 63 (2.00), C- 57 to 59 (1.67), D+ 53 to 56 (1.33), D 50 to 52 (1.00), and F below 50, per the Spring 2026 handbook.
Can I repeat a course at Bahria to improve my GPA?
Yes. The handbook allows courses graded C+ or below to be repeated, and the highest grade counts in your CGPA. Check the handbook for any limit on the number of repeats and the fees involved. Only courses at C+ or below qualify, so a B- or higher cannot be repeated for a better grade.
What is the minimum CGPA at Bahria University?
An undergraduate degree at Bahria needs a CGPA of at least 2.00. The pass mark for a course is 50, a D at 1.00 grade points. Below 50 the course is F with zero points. Courses graded C+ or below, including F, can be repeated, and the highest grade then counts.
Why does an old Bahria calculator give me a different GPA?
Many older tools use the previous Bahria scale, where A started at 87 and B+ covered 80 to 86 at 3.5. That table is outdated. This page uses the Spring 2026 Student Handbook table, which is what current students are graded on.
