York University GPA — Frequently Asked Questions
What GPA scale does York University use?
York University uses a distinctive 9-point GPA scale (0 to 9), unique among Canadian universities:
A+ = 9 (90–100) · A = 8 (80–89) · B+ = 7 (75–79) · B = 6 (70–74) · C+ = 5 (65–69) · C = 4 (60–64) · D+ = 3 (55–59) · D = 2 (50–54) · E = 1 (40–49, fail) · F = 0 (0–39).
Minimum passing grade is D (50%). It applies across all faculties at Keele and Glendon.
How is the York cumulative GPA calculated?
York averages are credit-weighted: Cumulative GPA = Σ(Grade Points × Credits) ÷ Σ(Credits).
Example: an A (8) in a 3-credit course and a B+ (7) in a 3-credit course → (8×3 + 7×3) ÷ 6 = 45 ÷ 6 = 7.50.
Only courses taken at York University are included in the average.
What does the E grade mean at York?
The E grade (40–49%) is a failing grade — officially "Marginally Failing" — even though it carries 1 grade point.
Per the York Undergraduate Calendar, a passed course requires D or better (50%+). An E cannot satisfy prerequisites or program requirements, and the course may need to be repeated.
York has two failing grades: E (marginal failure) and F (failure).
What's the minimum GPA for good academic standing?
York generally requires a cumulative GPA of at least 4.0 (C) for good academic standing.
Falling below the threshold can lead to academic warning, probation, or required withdrawal. Faculties such as Schulich, Lassonde and Health may impose higher requirements for progression and graduation.
How do I convert my York GPA to a 4.0 scale?
York does not use a 4.0 scale internally. A common approximate conversion is (York GPA ÷ 9) × 4.
Example: York GPA 7.20 → (7.20 ÷ 9) × 4 ≈ 3.20 on a 4.0 scale.
Credential evaluators such as WES and individual institutions may apply their own conversion tables, so always confirm the official policy of whoever is requesting the GPA.
Does this work for both Keele and Glendon campuses?
Yes. Both the Keele and Glendon campuses use the same 9-point grading scale defined in the York University Undergraduate Calendar, and the GPA calculation method is identical across all undergraduate faculties.
