Global Korea Scholarship (GKS) Official GPA Conversion Table

When applying for GKS scholarship, you are expected to submit your GPA in the application form as per the required scale (4.0, 4.3, 4.5, 5.0 or 100 point scale).  

- If your official university academic transcript is following one of the above scales, you are good to go.

- If the CGPA is not indicated in one of the acknowledged GPA scales (4.0, 4.3, 4.5, 5.0 or 100 point scale), submit a transcript converted into one of the above GPA scales as a supplementary document.- A converted transcript is only valid when the relevant university officially confirmed the document (this supplementary document does not need to be apostilled or consular confirmed, but should be submitted in an original document with university’s authentication).- A transcript converted with a conversion tool such as scholaro.com or wes.org is only acceptable when the relevant university officially confirms the document (does not need to be apostilled or consular confirmed, but should be authenticated by the university).※ Application without converted transcript may be put at a disadvantage during evaluation.- Transcript indicated with a CGPA for the entire academic curriculum will be accepted even if it does not have GPA per semester/year.- In such case, please put CGPA only and leave the GPA section empty in the application form.※ Academic transcript without a CGPA or without ranking information may be put at a disadvantage during evaluation.
