Student Rights and Responsibilities

SCHOLASTIC STANDARDS OF “大学

The academic standards policy of “大学 is established to assist students in making appropriate educational plans. There are two indices to academic standards: Academic Status and Academic Progress. Academic Progress is an evaluation of the student’s successful completion of units. The College will advise students of their grade point average and progress in order that they may make sound self-appraisal of their college 工作.

成绩

年级s are a means of communicating student achievement within 课程s of instruction. The suggested meaning of college grades is as follows:

“A” — The student has been consistently superior in all phases of the 课程 and has shown initiative, imagination, and self-direction well beyond that required by the 教练.

“B” — The student has satisfied the 课程 objectives with fairly consistent performance typically above average and demonstrates considerable mastery of the 课程 materials.

“C” — The student has completed most of the 课程 objectives and requirements in a satisfactory manner as to quantity and quality of performance, including attendance 和参与.

“D” — The student has barely met the 课程 objectives and success in advanced 工作 令人怀疑.

“F” — The student has failed to accomplish the minimum re- quirements of the 课程 and has not met the 课程 objectives to any significant degree.

“P” — The student has completed the 课程 with “C” or 更好的工作.

“NP” — The student has completed the 课程 but without credit. The student has either not taken the examination or has fallen below the grade of “C.”

“I”* — The student has not completed the 课程, has not taken the final examination, and has made an agreement with the 教练 to complete the requirements.*

*“I” (incomplete) grades represent an 教练-student agreement that the student may complete the 课程 工作 by the end of the following term or semester and receive an appropriate letter grade. If the student does not complete the 课程 工作 before this deadline, the right of the student to make up the 工作 is forfeited. “我” will be replaced with the alternate letter grade assigned by the 教练 at the time the incomplete was assigned. Consequently the revised GPA will be calculated.

ACADEMIC GRADE POINT AVERAGE

The Academic 年级 Point 平均 is an index of the quality of a student’s 工作.

年级s earned in non-degree-applicable 课程s (numbered 100–299) will not be used when calculating a student’s degree applicable grade point average. 以下没有课程 the English 1A requirement are degree applicable.

To enable the calculation of grade point average, eligibility for honors and recognition, and other scholastic status, letter grades are converted to numerical form using the following grade point equivalents:

年级	意义	年级的价值
A	优秀的	4 grade points per unit
B	高于平均水平	3 grade points per unit
C	平均	2 grade points per unit
D	勉强及格	1 grade points per unit
F	失败	0 grade points—units attempted with no units earned
P	通过	0 grade points—units earned with no units attempted.
NP	没有通过	0 grade points—units attempted with no units attempted. May negatively affect Progress.
I	不完整的	0 grade points—no units earned and no units attempted. May negatively affect Progress.

The grade point average (GPA) is calculated by dividing total grade points by total 单位尝试:

GPA = Total 年级 Points / Total Units Attempted

例子:

History 1: 3 units x 3 grade points (B) = 9 grade points
Math I: 5 units x 2 grade points (C) = 10 grade points
P.E. 1 ½ unit x 4 grade points (A) = 2 grade points

总计:8½单位
21 Total 年级 Points

GPA = 21/8.5=2.47或C

学术荣誉

学生 graduate with“Highest Honors” (GPA of 3.50 or better) and those who graduate with “Honors” (GPA of 3.25 or better) are recognized at graduation.

学生 complete at least 6 units of 工作 each semester with grades of A, B, C, D, or F yielding a semester grade point average of 3.5 or better are recognized for academic distinction by placement on the Academic Honors List and by a notation on the semester grade report and transcript.

Academic achievement may be further recognized by our “大学 chapter of Alpha Gamma Sigma, the California Community College scholastic honor society. 学生 fulfill the membership criteria of this community service-oriented club will earn a special recognition on their transcript. Individual programs and divisions may also recognize their graduates at commencement or special ceremonies. Membership eligibility and other information is available from the Office 学生生活 in Building 2300, “大学.

ACADEMIC PROBATION AND DISMISSAL

A student who has attempted at least 12 semester units of college 课程s (not including W’s) and has a cumulative grade point average of less than 2.0 will be placed on Academic 见习一级.

A student on Academic Probation I who does not raise his/ her cumulative grade point 平均到2.0 or higher in the following semester will be placed on Academic Probation II级. Please note that Veterans lose their certification for Veterans benefits after two semesters of academic probation. Please refer to the college’s Office of Veterans Affairs Academic Standards of Progress for further information.

A student on Academic Probation II who does not raise his/ her cumulative grade point 平均到2.0 or higher in the following semester of attendance will be dismissed. The first time a student is dismissed he or she may apply for readmission after one semester (summer session not included) of non- attendance. In the case of a second dismissal, the student may apply for readmission after 5 years of non- attendance. Summer session does not count as a semester in determining academic status.

REMOVAL OF POOR ACADEMIC STATUS

Once a student on academic probation raises his or her overall (cumulative) grade point 平均到2.0 (C), or higher, he/ she will be taken off of Academic Probation status and will become a “student in Good Standing.”

PROGRESS PROBATION AND DISMISSAL

Progress Probation is determined by the percentage of cumulative units with grades of W, NP, or I (Poor Progress 年级s). A student who has attempted 12 semester units of college 课程 工作 will be placed on Progress 见习一级 if 50% or more of the cumulative units attempted resulted in Poor Progress grades.

A student on Progress Probation I who does not reduce his/ her percentage of cumulative poor progress units to below 50% will be placed on Progress Probation II.

If a student on Progress Probation II continues to have 50% or more of his/her cumulative units made up of Poor Progress grades in the following semester, he/she will be dismissed. The first time a student is dismissed he or she may apply for readmission after one semester (summer session not included) of non-attendance. In the case of a second dismissal, the student may apply for readmission after 5 years of non-attendance. Summer session does not count as a semester in determining 进展状况.

REMOVAL OF POOR PROGRESS STATUS

In order to reverse poor 进展状况 and become a student in good standing a student must reduce the cumulative units of W, NP or I grades to less than 50% of his/her total units attempted. Summer session does not count as a semester in determining 进展状况.

上诉过程

Under extenuating 情况下 beyond the student’s control or ability to foresee, exceptions to these policies may be granted by the Director of 招生 和记录.

Students should see a counselor to discuss their progress or academic status and for details associated with the academic standards policy.

GRADE CHANGE DEADLINE PERIOD

Awarding grades to students is the responsibility of the 教练 of the 课程 in which the student is registered. The determination of the student’s grade by the 教练 shall be final in the absence of mistake, fraud, bad faith, or incompetence.

When a student believes that an error has been made in the assignment of a grade, he or she should discuss the problem with the 教练. To correct an erroneous grade, a special “Request for 年级 Change” form must be completed by the 教练 and submitted to the division Dean who will forward the form to the Vice President of 学术服务. Final authorization to 改变 the grade shall be granted by the President of the College or designee.

Requests for a grade 改变 must be made during the semester 立即 following the semester or session for which the grade was assigned. Responsibility for monitoring personal academic records rests with the student.

年级 改变s will not be made after the established deadline except in cases with extenuating 情况下. These are acute medical, family or other personal problems which rendered the student unable to meet the deadline. Requests for a grade 改变 under this exception shall be made to the Vice President of 学术服务 or designee who may, upon verification of the circumstance(s), authorize the initiation of a grade 改变. The student must present evidence of the extenuating circumstance(s).

PASS/NO PASS 成绩*

(Unit 限制 May Exist at Transfer Institutions)

In accordance with the Education Code and Title 5, §55022, “大学 has established a grading policy which adds the “P” (pass) and “NP” (no pass) grades to the standard letter grades (A,B,C,D,F) used in colleges and universities. Courses in which a “P” (pass) grade is earned will apply toward the 60 units required for graduation, but will not affect the student’s grade point average. A maximum of 12 units of “P” (pass) may be attempted and applied toward the Associate in Arts or Associate in Science 学位. (Additional units may be applied provided the student secures prior approval of the division Dean of 咨询. A 课程 in which a “NP” (no pass) grade is earned will not apply toward graduation and will not affect the student’s grade point average. An excess number of “NP” (no pass) grades will affect the student’s academic progress ratio, resulting in a low figure.

Offering 课程s for pass/no pass grades provides the student with the opportunity to explore areas outside his/ her current interest field without undue concern for his or her grade point average. This policy allows the student to take 课程工作 outside his or her major without the fear of a substandard grade, namely a “D” or “F.” Students are expected to complete the 课程 and comply with College attendance requirements and other expectancies of the 课程. Should they fail to do so, their enrollment in the class may be terminated and the 工作 may be graded on the basis of a standard letter grade.

“大学 offers:

1. Some 课程s solely for a pass/no pass (P or NP) grade.

2. Some 课程s solely for a standard letter grade.

3. Some 课程s in which the student may choose to complete the 课程 for either a pass/no pass grade OR for a standard letter grade.

On or before the last day of the fifth week of the semester, the student shall inform the 招生 和记录 Office, by petition, of his or her intention to complete a 课程 for a pass/no pass grade and the 教练 shall report to the Director of 招生 和记录 a final grade of “P” (pass) or “NP” (no pass) for students 谁这样请愿?. The student’s decision to opt for pass/no pass grade may not be reversed by either the student or the 教练 at a later date.

The “P” (pass) grade will be given to indicate completion of a 课程 with “C” or 更好的工作.

A student may repeat a 课程 in which a grade of “D,” “F” or “NP” (no pass) is earned.

*Formerly “Credit/No Credit”

ADMINISTRATIVE SYMBOLS “IP,”“RD,” AND “I”

Administrative Symbol “IP”—Mastery 学习 Courses The administrative symbol “IP” is established to indicate 课程工作 “in progress.” Its use is limited to mastery 学习课程. It may be used only for a student who is making satisfactory progress toward the completion of a 课程 but who has not completed all of the modules by the end of the semester or session.
