| |A grade of "I" is assigned to a student who has been unable to complete all course requirements because of personal illness or | | | | |

| |circumstances judged by the instructor to warrant consideration. An "I" is not assigned for absence from examination, unless the absence| | | | |

| |has already been officially excused. | | | | |

| | | | | | |

| |The grade of "N" is assigned in certain basic curriculum and compensatory courses when a student has not earned the grade necessary to | | | | |

| |meet the requirements for that course (usually a "C"). Students are not charged with hours attempted for courses in which they receive | | | | |

| |an "N"; thus there is no GPA penalty for "N" grades. Students may continue to repeat such a course without academic penalty until they | | | | |

| |earn the requisite grade. In those cases in which a course is a prerequisite for another course, students must repeat the course in | | | | |

| |which they receive an "N" until they earn a satisfactory grade. | | | | |

| | | | | | |

| |A grade of "X" is assigned to a student who fails to take the final examination. In order to remove the "X" grade, a student must | | | | |

| |receive permission from his/her Dean to schedule a make-up examination. | | | | |

| | | | | | |

| |It is the responsibility of a student to remove grades of "I" or "X" during the next semester after receiving the grade, except that a | | | | |

| |student who makes a grade of "I" or "X" during the spring semester and does not attend during the summer semester may remove the | | | | |

| |deficiency during the following fall semester. Failure to remove the "I" or "X" grade during the specified time will result in the | | | | |

| |student’s receiving an "F" grade. | | | | |

| | | | | | |

| |The grade of "FA" is assigned to a student whose absences make it impossible for him/her to receive a passing grade in the course but | | | | |

| |who does not otherwise have a failing average on tests and other work completed. For example, a student who leaves school without | | | | |

| |officially withdrawing receives the grade of "FA" in each course which he/she is otherwise passing. The grade of "F" is given in each | | | | |

| |course in which the student has a failing average. In computing a student’s grade-point average, an "FA" is counted the same as an "F." | | | | |

|Majority of graduate programs in business (MBA, MPA, etc.) require 2 semesters of business statistics as prerequisite. Our students are forced to take additional course work prior to entering a graduate program. |

|Currently, we only offer this as an elective and no classes have made. In order to incorporate this course in the program, it is necessary to increase the total number of hours required for graduation from 120 to |

|123. |

|This only affects programs in the College of Business. |

|Approved by College 7/13/2007 |

|This will require a full time instructor for statistics AY 2008-2009  since we currently fill 2 sections of BA 271 and we can expect at least 1 full section for BA 371. |
