Reporting
Numerical grades earned by students will be reported for each course at the end of the quarter using a scale from 4.0-1.0, or 0.0, and will apply to grade point average (GPA) calculations. Numerical grades may be considered equivalent to letter grades as follows: Numerical Grades Letter
4.0 A
3.9-3.7 A-
3.6-3.3 B+
3.2-3.0 B
2.9-2.7 B-
2.6-2.3 C+
2.2-2.0 C
1.9-1.7 C-
1.6-1.3 D+
1.2-1.0 D
0.0 N/C
N/C: No Credit
No credit for course (factored in GPA)
S: Satisfactory
Satisfactory completion of a pass/fail course (not factored in GPA)
U: Unsatisfactory
Unsatisfactory completion of a pass/fail course (not factored in GPA)
W: Withdrawal
Withdrawal from course (not factored in GPA)
Students will be allowed to withdraw from courses in accordance with college procedures. To withdraw and receive a “W” on your transcript, students must complete the withdrawal request by the 40th instructional day of the quarter.
I: Incomplete (previously "IC" - change effective Fall Quarter 2024)
An incomplete (I) may be granted for a course in which the student enrolled but did not complete all work required to earn a numeric grade due to unusual or emergency circumstances beyond the student's control.
An Incomplete (I) is not a student right, but is an instructor granted extension of the time needed to finish and submit required work the student was unable to complete during the regular course time frame
The student need not re-enroll nor pay additional tuition in the following quarter for the individual course in which an I is granted. An instructor may give an I to a student provided there is a contract in place between the student and the instructor specifying:
- What work must be completed
- By what date the work will be completed, what the final grade for the course will be if the student does not complete all required work by the required date. If the student fails to complete the required work by the deadline set by the instructor (in no case beyond the end of the subsequent quarter), the I will automatically change to the grade designated on the contract.
*If you receive financial aid, please check with the Financial Aid Office if you receive incomplete (I), zeros (NC), or withdrawals (W}, as these grades can negatively impact your financial aid eligibility.
