What is GWA (GPA) in the Philippines?
GWA (General Weighted Average) is the standard method used by Philippine universities and colleges to measure a student’s academic performance. It’s similar to the international GPA system but uses a 1.00–5.00 grading scale, where 1.00 is the highest (excellent) and 5.00 is the lowest (failing).
Your GWA is crucial for:
- Scholarship applications
- Graduation honors (cum laude, magna cum laude, summa cum laude)
- Transferring to other schools
- Applying for jobs or internships
- Meeting university requirements
