VIT Grading Scale
VIT uses a 10-point grading scale with grades S (10, 90%+) to F (Fail, below 50%). VIT is known for its FFCS (Fully Flexible Credit System) where students choose their own courses, faculty, and timeslots each semester.
| Grade | Grade points / CGPA band | Marks band | How to read it |
|---|---|---|---|
| S | 10 | 90-100 | Highest VIT grade band |
| A | 9 | 80-89 | Strong performance band |
| B | 8 | 70-79 | Very good band |
| C / D | 7 / 6 | 55-69 | Middle passing bands |
| E | 5 | 50-54 | Minimum passing grade band |
| F / N | 0 | Below pass / debarred | No earned course credit until cleared |
Credit Structure and Applicability
VIT operates FFCS, so the transcript is built from student-registered lecture, lab, project and embedded courses. CGPA is the sum of credit x grade point divided by total registered credits.
Use this for VIT grade-point transcripts where a percentage equivalence is requested. The official certificate/PDF remains the source for formal submissions.
