Grade points are computed on a 4-point scale as follows:
A = 4.0 Grade points C = 2.0 Grade points
A- = 3.7
C- = 1.7
B+ = 3.3 D+ = 1.3
B = 3.0
D = 1.0
B- = 2.7 D- = 0.7
C+ = 2.3
F = 0.0
There may be occasion to use the grade of P (passed) or F (failed). The numerical value of P is 4.0, while
F remains at 0.0. The Numerical Value of each letter grade may vary in some courses. Grade Report forms, which are maintained
by the College and sent to each student, are composed as soon as possible following the end of each class. Students placed
on D and F lists are notified.
