Grading System

Class and lab participation, tests, and final examinations are the major factors contributing to a student's grade.  To meet state requirements, students may not make a grade of D in their major areas.  (This policy excludes core courses.)  Students who make a D must repeat the course and obtain a final grade higher than D.  The following grade system is used to report student progress in credit courses:
