Gradebook Built for DIKTI Standards and SKS Credits
Indonesian universities follow the DIKTI 9-grade scale mandated by the Ministry of Education. The gradebook tracks both IPS (semester GPA) and IPK (cumulative GPA), uses SKS credit units, and computes Predikat Kelulusan classifications. OpenEduCat ships with the full scale pre-configured to BAN-PT accreditation standards.
Grading Scales
Pre-configured grade bands shipped with the Indonesia module. No manual setup required.
| Grade | Points / Range | Description |
|---|---|---|
| A (Excellent) | 4.0, 85 to 100% | Highest grade. A student scoring 90% in Algoritma dan Pemrograman earns 4.0 quality points per SKS credit. |
| A- (Very Good) | 3.7, 80 to 84% | Strong performance. For a 3 SKS course, this contributes 11.1 quality points toward the semester IPS. |
| B+ (Good+) | 3.3, 75 to 79% | Above the good threshold. Most Indonesian employers look for graduates with IPK above 3.0, landing in this range helps. |
| B (Good) | 3.0, 70 to 74% | Solid mid-range. A 4 SKS course at grade B contributes 12.0 quality points. |
| C (Average / Pass) | 2.0, 55 to 59% | Minimum passing grade on the DIKTI scale. A student at 54% receives D (1.0) and may need to retake. |
| E (Fail) | 0.0, Below 45% | Failing grade. The student must retake the mata kuliah to earn credit. The failed grade is included in GPA unless replaced by a passing grade. |
What the Indonesia Module Does
Country-specific features that go beyond the core gradebook engine.
Dual GPA: IPS and IPK
Indonesian transcripts require both the semester GPA (Indeks Prestasi Semester (IPS) and the cumulative GPA (Indeks Prestasi Kumulatif) IPK). OpenEduCat stores both values. The IPS is computed from the current semester's gradebook, while the IPK accumulates across all published semesters. Both appear on the Transkrip Akademik.
SKS Credit Units
Indonesia uses SKS (Sistem Kredit Semester) as its credit unit, equivalent to 1 contact hour per week. The system stores SKS values in the standard credit_hours field and uses them for weighted GPA computation. A 3 SKS course with a grade B (3.0) contributes 9.0 quality points.
DIKTI 9-Grade Scale
The ID_DIKTI scale implements the Ministry of Education's standard: 9 grades from A (4.0) through E (0.0). Grade boundaries follow Kemendikbud specifications. The scale is pre-loaded at module installation, no manual configuration needed for standard Indonesian programs.
Predikat Kelulusan (Graduation Predicate)
Graduates are classified into three predicates: Dengan Pujian (Cum Laude) at IPK 3.75+ with no F grades in any semester, Sangat Memuaskan (Very Satisfactory) at IPK 3.00+, and Memuaskan (Satisfactory) at IPK 2.76+. The Cum Laude check includes a no-failure requirement enforced by the system.
Transkrip Akademik Report
The standard Indonesian academic transcript showing IPS per semester, IPK cumulative total, SKS credits, grades, and the Predikat Kelulusan classification. Generated as PDF through the report engine with QR verification support when the secure bridge module is installed.
Cum Laude No-Failure Validation
Earning Cum Laude requires more than just a high IPK. The student must have zero F grades across their entire academic career. The system checks the requires_no_failures flag on the Cum Laude honours classification and validates against all published gradebooks before awarding the predicate.
Per-Semester IPK Tracking
The transcript renders IPS for each semester alongside the running IPK. This lets students, advisors, and accreditation bodies track academic progress over time. A student whose IPS drops below 2.0 in any semester triggers academic standing review.
Re-Attempt Policy
Course Retake (Best Grade Replacement)
Indonesian universities typically allow students to retake a failed mata kuliah. The best grade earned across attempts replaces the original in the IPK calculation. Both grades may appear on the transcript with annotations indicating which is the active grade. There is no grade cap on retakes, a student who failed with an E can earn an A on the second attempt and the full 4.0 quality points count toward their IPK.
How re-attempts affect the transcript
- The active grade (counted in GPA) is marked with an asterisk (*)
- Superseded or excluded grades are annotated with their status code
- All attempts appear on the transcript for full academic transparency
- Cleared, condoned, compensated, and exempted backlogs do not block graduation

Honours & Classification
How graduates are classified under the Indonesia system.
| Classification | Threshold |
|---|---|
| Dengan Pujian (Cum Laude) | IPK 3.75 of 4.0, no F grades in any semester |
| Sangat Memuaskan (Very Satisfactory) | IPK 3.00 of 4.0 |
| Memuaskan (Satisfactory) | IPK 2.76 of 4.0 |
Regulatory Alignment
BAN-PT (Badan Akreditasi Nasional Perguruan Tinggi)
The Indonesia gradebook module pre-configures grading scales, assessment templates, re-attempt policies, and transcript formats to align with the requirements set by BAN-PT (Badan Akreditasi Nasional Perguruan Tinggi). The data structures, computation rules, and report formats follow the standards your accreditation body expects to see during institutional audits.
Grade distributions, pass rates, GPA trends, and classification statistics can all be exported to Excel for submission during accreditation reviews. The structured data makes it straightforward to pull the specific metrics your accreditation criteria require.
