Mid-Term Grades
At the midpoint of the Fall and Spring semesters you will receive either an S (Satisfactory) or U (Unsatisfactory) grade. This grade is advisory only, indicating the quality of your work up to that point of the semester, and is not a permanent part of the academic record.

Final Grades
At the conclusion of the semester you will receive a Final Grade, A-F, for you coursework. This will appear on your transcript. You can check your grades using the online WebAdvisor system.

Incompletes
Under certain circumstances, instructors may issue a temporary 'incomplete' grade:

  • Illness or injury
  • Early transfer
  • Job relocation
  • Completion of independent projects or assignments

This allows you thirty days into the next semester to complete the required work.

If you do not meet the requirements within the thirty days, the I grade is automatically converted to F.

Grade Challenges
The College provides an appeal procedure if you believe that a recorded grade is not the one earned in a course:

  1. See the course instructor to resolve the matter.
  2. If resolution is not achieved, consult with the Department's Assistant Academic Dean.
  3. If resolution is still not achieved, appeal to the Committee on Academic Performance.

It should be noted that only the instructor of a course makes a grade change. Other steps in the appeal process are advisory. You are urged to retain all graded work until final grades have been received from the College.

No appeal for a change of a grade will be considered after three years have elapsed since the end of the semester or session in which the grade was received.

Transcripts
A transcript is a document that details the semesters you were enrolled, the courses you took and the grades you received.

If you need to have a copy of your transcript sent to another college or an employer, you may request an official copy by completing the transcript request form and submitting it with the $2 fee to the Admissions office.
