Convert French grades to Turkish

From French (0–20) to Turkish (0–100). Instant, free, calculated in your browser.

Students moving from French universities to Turkish universities face this conversion when programmes report grades in the French system but admissions in the destination country expect the Turkish system.

How the French → Turkish conversion works

Every MyCollab conversion runs through a single 0–1 normalized score so the math stays consistent across all nine systems.

French grades on the 0–20 scale normalize as grade ÷ 20, so 20 maps to 1.0 and 10 (pass) to 0.5.

To express the normalized score on the Turkish 0–100 scale, MyCollab applies norm × 100 and rounds to a whole number.

Worked example: a 15 on the French (0–20) scale normalizes to 0.75. On the Turkish (0–100) scale, 0.75 corresponds to 3.00 GPA (BB — Pass).

Common questions

Is this conversion accepted by Turkish universities?+
MyCollab's conversion follows the same normalized-score approach used by services like WES, ECCTIS (UK NARIC), and Uni-Assist. Individual universities make their own final decisions, but a MyCollab conversion gives you a defensible reference point when you discuss your transcript with admissions or with a credential evaluator. Always check the target university's published admissions guidance for any institution-specific adjustments.
Do graduate programmes use a different Turkish scale?+
Some graduate programmes apply stricter thresholds: for example, US graduate schools often expect a normalized score above 0.75 (≈ B+ / 3.3), and German master's programmes often want a 2.5 or better. MyCollab gives you the underlying conversion; programme-specific thresholds are on each university's admissions page. The /sop-checklist tool surfaces typical thresholds per country.
What about pass/fail or untranslated courses?+
Pass/fail courses on a French transcript usually do not carry a numeric grade and therefore do not participate in the GPA conversion. Most credential evaluators exclude them from the GPA calculation but still list them on the official transcript. Leave them out of the MyCollab calculator unless your target programme has a published rule for converting them.
How is the French-to-Turkish conversion calculated?+
MyCollab normalizes the French grade onto a 0–1 scale (0–20 with 10 to pass; above 16 is exceptional), then projects that score onto the Turkish scale (0–100 % with 60 to pass; maps to a 4.0 letter scale). The result is always grounded in the official published ranges — no opaque weighting, no proprietary curves. The math is explained in plain language above and exposed in the /my-grades tool.
