Grade Equivalency

Undergraduate Students

Grades received at Spanish universities will be evaluated by the Director of the School in Spain and converted to U.S. grades.  These grades and credits will be entered on a Middlebury transcript, which will be reported back to Middlebury and calculated into the GPA for Middlebury students.  Middlebury will send a transcript with grades and credits to the home institution of students from outside of Middlebury.  The following is an approximate conversion table.  The conversion takes into account the difficulties inherent in studying within a different university system.  Due to the late reporting of grades by the individual universities, students should understand that they will not receive their grades until a few months after the end of the semester. Students may consult their Spanish grades directly at the host university and for further clarification must attend the revisión de exámenes held by each professor.
