GRADING SYSTEM
TRADITIONAL GRADING/SCHOLARSHIP QUALITY POINTS
Eight traditional grade indices are used: A, B+, B, C+, C, D+, D, F, in descending order with F indicating academic failure. Letter grades carry weighted scholarship points as follows:
-
A | = | 4 points |
B+ | = | 3.5 points |
B | = | 3 points |
C+ | = | 2.5 points |
C | = | 2 points |
D+ | = | 1.5 points |
D | = | 1 point |
F | = | 0 points |
per credit hour attempted. Weighted scholarship points are not awarded for courses graded on the credit/no credit system. "W", awarded as a result of withdrawing from a course prior to completion, is not computed in the GPA. (Also see sections on withdrawal, change of schedule, grade average computation and re-registered courses.)
