Failure to complete the work during this time will result in a grade based on the amount of work satisfactorily completed. See the academic calendar for exact dates. Grades are issued at mid-semester to entering students, all students on academic probation and other students performing below a 2.0 in a particular course. Final grades are issued to all students at the end of each semester. Parents of freshmen and parents of students on academic probation also receive mid-semester and semester final grade reports.
Final grades become a part of the official academic record of each student.
A student may withdraw from a course up to and including the tenth class day after the due date for mid-semester grades by turning in to the Registrar's Office a request form bearing the signatures of the student's instructor and adviser. Performance in the course will be recorded on the permanent record as a grade of W. The grade of W does not carry grade point value. A course in which the final grade is 1.0, 1.3 or 1.7 may be repeated with the permission of the student's adviser and the Committee on Academic Status and Petitions. A course in which the final grade is 0.0 may be repeated without specific approval of the Committee. Both grades, original and repeated, appear on the permanent academic record but only the second grade is counted in the grade point average and in meeting graduation requirements.
