Change of Grades

A grade will only be changed if an error was made in computing or recording it. A student has the right to appeal grades through the student grievance policy. Students must appeal a grade within thirty (30) days of the end of the semester in which the grade was received.

Computing Quality Point Average
Quality point average is determined by dividing the total number of quality points earned by the total number of hours attempted. Credits earned by examinations or transferred from other colleges are not included. The hours attempted column shows only hours taken for grades and carrying credit toward graduation.

Students will be permitted to transfer from one program to another when they feel the program change will be academically valuable. However, it is recommended that students consult with the financial aid office to determine their eligibility status before changing their major. Before a second change of program will be allowed, the student must confer with a counselor. Transfer from one program to another will not result in one's grade point average being changed. Should a student on probation transfer to another program, transfer credit will be given, but the student's grade point average is cumulative and will remain the same as in the former program.
