Grading System

Students earn grades which are assigned by individual faculty members on the basis of an objective evaluation of students’ academic achievement. To successfully complete a certificate or an associate degree at the College, students must earn a minimum Grade Point Average (GPA) of 2.0 and meet all program requirements. Grades and transcripts are part of a students academic history and are maintained permanently. The following grades are used in the computation of the Grade Point Average:
