IRA to GPA Converter

About This Tool

The tool performs a transparent, rule-based conversion from an IRA score to a GPA value on a standard 4.0 scale. It targets students, admissions professionals, and credential evaluators who require a consistent basis for transcript comparison. Conceptually, it applies a linear mapping from the IRA range to the GPA range (by default 0–10 to 0–4). For example, an IRA of 7.5 on a 0–10 scale yields a GPA of 3.00 when rounded to two decimals. The system supports optional customization, including different IRA scales or a non-standard GPA maximum, to accommodate institutional policies. Key differentiators are explicit handling of valid input ranges, configurable rounding, and clear output geometry that remains consistent across scales. Use cases include pre-application evaluation, cross-institution transcript checks, and policy-aligned record reporting. Core features include input validation, default scale assumptions, and a precise, auditable calculation path. This tool avoids subjective adjustments and provides a repeatable method suitable for both individual applicants and institutional workflows.
