Grading System

The grading scale for the School's programs is as follows;

• Homework/ Quizzes/Vocabulary 40%

• Tests 60%

• This gives you the term grade which then counts 75% of Final term grade

• Final-term exam 25%

• Three Final Term Grades averaged with Program final 75%

• Program final exam 25%

• Lab: Pass/Fail

• Pass - Satisfactory completion of non-graded Clinical Training

• Fail - Unsatisfactory completion of non-graded Clinical Training

"a passing grade of all clinical/externship components are required to progress to the next level of study. INCOMPLETE GRADES: Incomplete grades and how they are corrected are discussed later in this handbook under Make-Up work. Incomplete grades will affect the satisfactory academic progress if they are not made-up within the allotted time discussed in the Make-up policy. The teacher will inform the program director of failure to make-up work by the student and a grade of "0" will be recorded for the student. If the student completes all required make-up work within the time allowed by the teacher, the teacher may then change the incomplete grade to a grade which reflects the student's make-up work. REPEATING COURSES: Should an unsatisfactory grade cause the student to fail a course that course may be retaken at the time of the next course offering. No credit will be given for courses with a failing grade.
