SISU specialises in languages, translation and international studies. It has been running in Shanghai since 1949.
Like most Chinese institutions, SISU awards marks out of 100 rather than letter grades. A pass sits at 60. A 4-point GPA, when a foreign application asks for one, is derived from those percentage marks.
We could not retrieve an official SISU grading regulation. Our calculator falls back on the standard Chinese convention because no institutional table was available. Conversion bands vary between Chinese universities, so a GPA calculated here may not match your registrar's.
Get the number from SISU in writing. An official transcript settles the question; an online estimate does not.
SISU hosts Shanghai International Studies University Shanghai Government Scholarship, which is covered separately on this site.

We publish these openly rather than filling them with guesses. Help us close one.
Reference model only. Tsinghua and Chinese institutions use 100-point marks natively, while conversion to a 4.0 scale can depend on the programme, cohort and receiving institution. Do not present the 4.0 mapping as a universal Tsinghua policy.
| Grade | Points | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A | 4.00 | Excellent |
| A- | 3.70 | Excellent |
| B+ | 3.30 | Good |
| B | 3.00 | Good |
| B- | 2.70 | Good |
| C+ | 2.30 | Average |
| C | 2.00 | Average |
| C- | 1.50 | Pass |
| D | 1.00 | Minimum Pass |
| F | 0.00 | Fail |
Not one we could retrieve. Chinese universities convert internally from percentage marks and the bands differ, so ask the academic affairs office for an official transcript.
As a sanity check it is fine. As evidence in an application it is not, since the underlying conversion is generic.
