Grading System

The College will employ a grading system consisting of a letter grade (A to I), a significance descriptor (excellent to incomplete), and a corresponding quality point value (4.000 to 0.000) to evaluate a student’s performance with coursework. This grading system is applicable to all students of the College.

Grade Point Average (GPA)

Grade Point Average (GPA) is a standard way of measuring academic achievement on a course taken by a student. The importance of a students’ GPA cannot be overstated. The GPA is the only quantitative assessment of the student’s achievement with courses completed. Students are encouraged to work as hard as possible to earn the highest GPA.

Administrative procedures have been developed to provide additional information.
