Letter Grade

Letter grades will be assigned to each course as an evaluation of student performance.

Letter grades of A, B, C, D, F, FN and FW will be used in computation of GPA. A grade of F (including FN and FW) will not satisfy a graduation requirement nor will it count as a course completion for calculation of satisfactory academic progress.

A: Performance greatly exceeds course requirements (4 quality points per credit)
B: Performance surpasses course requirements (3 quality points per credit)
C: Performance meets course requirements (2 quality points per credit)
D: Performance minimally meets course requirements (1 quality point per credit)
F: Performance is unsatisfactory (0 quality points per credit)
FN: Never participated in the course (0 quality points per credit)
FW: Participation ceased prior to the end of course (0 quality points per credit)
P: Pass-performance meets course requirements (C or better)
NC: No Credit-performance does not meet course requirements
AU: Audit-student registers, pays and attends, but receives no credit (initiated/declared at registration). A student may not audit the same course more than one time.
I: Incomplete-temporary grade based on written agreement between student and instructor
W: Withdrawal-Student initiated by deadlines in course schedule

Repeated Courses: When a course is repeated, both courses and grades earned will be shown on the student’s transcript. The course that was previously taken is not counted in GPA calculation but will count as an attempted but not completed course for calculation of satisfactory academic progress. The most recent attempt will be used in the review of award requirements.
