CALENDAR SYSTEM
Since Fall of 1985, ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø has provided instruction on a semester calendar, which consists of fall and spring semesters and two summer sessions. Credit hours for each class are indicated on the transcript proper. Prior to Fall 1985, instruction was provided on a 4-1-4 calendar with no grade points given for plus and minus. In instances where a student's transcript includes both calendar types, credit hours earned prior to Fall 1985 have been converted to 3.33 credits for each unit of instruction. Effective 2013: January terms are listed for the sole purpose of transfer credit.

HONORS

  • Dean's List: Term Honors are computed for the fall and spring semesters as of the established date for submitting grades. Honors are awarded to each student who satisfactorily completes fourteen semester hours and earns the appropriate grade point average. Effective Fall 2011: Term Honors--3.650 or higher; Fall 1998-Spring 2011: Honors--3.400-3.669 and Highest Honors--3.670-4.000; Prior to Fall 1998: Honors--3.33 or higher.

REPEATED COURSES

With the exception of designated programs, credit granted by ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø for work taken at another institution or by examination is not included in the GPA.
