Struggling to convert your Danish grades for international applications? A GPA Calculator for Denmark is your essential tool for translating the Danish 7-point grading scale (00-13, now primarily 7-point) into the U.S. 4.0 GPA system or other formats like ECTS. In 2025, with universities like Harvard, Oxford, and DTU requiring standardized GPAs for admissions, and Danish students applying abroad more than ever, this calculator simplifies the process by weighting grades by ECTS credits and adjusting for the Danish system‘s focus on mastery over averages. Whether you’re a high school student in Copenhagen preparing for U.S. colleges or a university grad in Aarhus seeking EU mobility, Gcalculate.com delivers instant, accurate conversions—based on official scales from the Danish Agency for Science and Higher Education.
Denmark’s grading system uses the 7-point scale (introduced in 2007, compatible with ECTS), ranging from -3 (worst) to 12 (best), with 02 as the minimum passing grade. It’s criterion-referenced, emphasizing whether you meet learning objectives rather than ranking against peers. The older 13-point scale (00-13) is still referenced in some transcripts but converted to 7-point for modern use.
Key features:
For international purposes, Danish grades convert to 4.0 GPA, with 12 ≈ 4.0, 10 ≈ 3.7, and 02 ≈ 2.0.
A GPA Calculator for Denmark converts individual grades or semester averages to a weighted GPA, accounting for ECTS credits (typically 30/semester). It first maps Danish marks to U.S. equivalents, then computes the cumulative GPA.

For 13-point legacy: 13=12, 11=10, etc. Linear conversion for non-standard scales.
Courses (5 ECTS each):
Weighted GPA = (3.7×5 + 3.3×5 + 4.0×5 + 3.0×5) / 20 = (18.5 + 16.5 + 20 + 15) / 20 = 70 / 20 = 3.5 / 4.0.
CGPA = (3.4×30 + 3.7×30 + 3.1×30) / 90 = (102 + 111 + 93) / 90 = 306 / 90 = 3.4 / 4.0.
