Catalog 2013-2014

Graduation Grade Point Average

Graduation grade point averages include only those courses required for graduation. When students take courses more than once, the most recent grade earned is used in the graduation grade point average. The graduation grade point average does not include credits earned at other colleges, credits associated with learning support classes, credits earned through the credit-by-examination process, credits for which the college does not assign quality points, and courses otherwise excluded by college policy. Students must earn a minimum 2.0 graduation grade point average in order to graduate from the college.

The college recognizes students as honor graduates if they earn a graduation grade point average of 4.0. The college recognizes students as presidential scholars if they earn a graduation grade point average of between 3.75 and 3.99 and as deans' scholars if they earn a graduation grade point average of between 3.50 and 3.74.
