Convert UK grades to Italian

From UK (Percentage) to Italian (0–30). Instant, free, calculated in your browser.

UK Erasmus or postgraduate students applying to Italian universities translate the UK percentage scale into Italy's 0–30 exam scale.

How the UK → Italian conversion works

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

On the UK percentage scale, the normalized score is percentage ÷ 100, so 70% (First) maps to 0.70 and 40% (pass) to 0.40.

To express the normalized score on the Italian 0–30 scale, MyCollab multiplies by 30 and rounds to the nearest whole mark.

Worked example: a 72 on the UK (Percentage) scale normalizes to 0.72. On the Italian (0–30) scale, 0.72 corresponds to 21.60 (Discreto).

Common questions

Is this conversion accepted by Italian 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 Italian 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 UK 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 UK-to-Italian conversion calculated?+
MyCollab normalizes the UK grade onto a 0–1 scale (0–100 % with 40 to pass; First ≥ 70, 2:1 ≥ 60), then projects that score onto the Italian scale (0–30 with 18 to pass (30 cum laude = 30L)). 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.
