IN 1.0 - Grades :

SUMMARY/SCOPE
Grades are awarded to students based on their academic performance and achievement in each class they enroll in. The college utilizes a published four-point grading system, and in some instances, a letter grade, to evaluate the student's level of achievement in meeting course learning outcomes.

DESCRIPTION
The responsibility for evaluating student work and awarding credit if the academic expectations of the course have been completed satisfactorily resides with the faculty. Grading of student work is based on the course learning outcomes/objectives and the methods of criteria of evaluation stated in the class syllabus. Any changes to grading practices proposed by the Academic Standards Committee must be reviewed and approved by the Vice President for Instruction.
