How the United Kingdom system works
UK ENIC (formerly UK NARIC) issues Statements of Comparability, and universities assess transcripts directly. UK degree classes are broad bands — a First is genuinely exceptional.
Is it competitive?
Most United Kingdom master's programmes look for the equivalent of a US 3.0+ (an upper-second / good average), with competitive and funded programmes wanting more. Convert first, then check each programme's stated minimum. For a credit-weighted multi-course result, use the WES iGPA calculator.
