70 ? 79

3.0 - 3.9

60 ? 69

2.0 - 2.9

C

50 ? 59

1.0 -1.9

D

Numerical Grading System O ?100

A pass mark is 50% in all courses unless specified differently

in the course outlines or in the College Calendar.

Grading Symbols Unless specifically indicated, letter grading symbols are not calculated in the average. Numeric grades associated with failed courses and transfer credits are recorded. Numeric grades assigned to the "F" graded symbol are calculated in the semester averages.

Credits The credit value is determined by dividing the total number of hours or equivalent hours of a course by the minimum duration of the semester (normally 14 to 16 weeks).

Dean's List ? Effective Fall 1989 The Dean's List recognizes full-time postsecondary students who have achieved a weighted average of 80.0% or higher for any academic semester.

Calculation of Weighted Averages (Effective Fall 2003) Semester Weighted Averages are used to determine Grade Point Average (GPA). GPA is used to determine promotional status and eligibility to graduate at Georgian College.

GPA includes all credit courses taken in the semester. Grades receive Quality Points (QP) ranging from O to 100 (grade earned = QP). Courses are assigned "credits" based on the number of total hours (42 hour course= 3 credits). The total course QP is calculated by multiplying the QP (based on the grade) by the course credits.

To calculate the semester GPA, divide the total QP by the total course credits.

Program GPA is computed similarly and includes all course grades for all semesters in the student's program.

Prior to Fall 2003, Semester Weighted Average (SWA) was used at Georgian College to determine promotional status and eligibility to graduate.

The SWA includes all credit courses taken in the semester (excluding Fundamentals courses as of Fall 1998). The SWA is calculated by multiplying the final course grade by the course hours to give the weighted grade.

Grade x Total Course Hours = Weighted Grade

The weighted grades from each course are then totaled and divided by the total hours for all courses taken in that semester (excluding Fundamentals courses as of Fall 1998) to calculate the Semester Weighted Average.

Sum of All Weighted Grades divided by the Sum of Total
