The grade calculation process will be consistent across the Bellin College curricula. For all program offerings, within each course individual assignments/projects/exams will be recorded to one decimal point without rounding up (for example, 92.37 will be recorded as 92.3.) The final composite course grade will not be rounded up (for example, a 92.8 will receive an AB.)
Each course is graded in its entirety. A student must be successful in all course components (i.e. class, lab, and/or clinical) to receive a passing grade. The course outcomes are represented in all course components.
It is the policy of Bellin College to not offer extra credit in undergraduate major courses.
