ECTS Credits

For the below questions you must convert the credits into the ECTS credit scale. ECTS stands for the European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System, where 60 ECTS credits corresponds to one full year of studies. If your home university does not offer an official conversion of your credits into ECTS credits, estimate the corresponding ECTS credits for each of your courses through the following formula: 


ECTS credits for course Y = 60 x (credits for course Y at your home university) / ( Number of credits equivalent to one year of full-time studies). 

Example: A course from an Indian university has 5 local credit points. The total number of credit points per year stated in the transcript is 32. Then the equivalent ECTS is 60*5/32 = 9.4 ECTS.

Is there an official calculation of an overall grade point average (usually referred to as GPA or simply CGPA) at the certificate issued by your university?

Relative performance = 50 + 50*(GPA from 4.7.1 - lowest grade for degree from 4.6) / (Highest grade from 4.5 - lowest grade for degree from 4.6)


Check: Your calculation should lead to a numeric value in the range [50...100]
