Determine your eligibility for AUT Honours status by calculating your Honours GPA. This calculator helps you understand how your grades translate to the Honours GPA scale and whether you meet the requirements for honours.
How to Use This Calculator
To calculate your AUT Honours GPA:
- Enter your total number of credits attempted in your degree.
- Enter your total number of credits passed.
- Enter your total number of credits failed.
- Select your degree level (Bachelor's or Master's).

The calculator will display your Honours GPA and indicate whether you meet the requirements for honours. The result will show whether you are eligible for honours, provisional honours, or not eligible based on AUT's criteria.
How the AUT Honours GPA is Calculated
The AUT Honours GPA is calculated using the following formula:
Honours GPA = (Total Credits Passed / Total Credits Attempted) × 100
Your Honours GPA is then compared to AUT's eligibility criteria:
- Honours: 75% or higher
- Provisional Honours: 70-74.99%
- Not Eligible: Below 70%
For Master's degrees, the requirements may vary slightly, so ensure you check the specific criteria for your program.
AUT Honours Requirements
AUT's honours requirements typically include:
- A minimum Honours GPA of 75% for Bachelor's degrees.
- A minimum Honours GPA of 70% for Master's degrees.
- Completion of a specified number of credits in the major field.
- No more than a specified number of credits failed.
These requirements can vary by faculty and program, so it's important to check the specific criteria for your degree.
Note: The exact requirements for honours may vary by faculty and program. Always check the latest information from AUT's academic regulations.
Worked Example
Let's calculate the Honours GPA for a student with the following details:
- Total Credits Attempted: 120
- Total Credits Passed: 90
- Total Credits Failed: 30
- Degree Level: Bachelor's
Using the formula:
Honours GPA = (90 / 120) × 100 = 75%
Since 75% meets the Bachelor's honours requirement, this student would be eligible for honours.
