About these calculators
How WAM is calculated in Australia
A Weighted Average Mark (WAM) uses each subject mark and its credit points or units of credit. Multiply the mark by the course credit value, add those products and divide by the included credit points. This makes a 12-credit subject count twice as much as a 6-credit subject.
Australian universities can differ on failed attempts, transfer credit, repeated subjects and which levels count toward an honours or programme WAM. A WAM-to-GPA conversion is not universal. Keep the WAM calculation separate from any destination institution’s conversion table.
How to get the right result
Use the values and academic units shown by the institution. Select a named profile when available, then review exclusions, rounding and repeated-course rules before treating the result as official.
Why profiles matter
A familiar formula can produce a misleading answer when the grade-point scale, credits, coefficients or policy version do not match. Every tool names its active profile and shows its formula.
