You must obtain an overall score of 70% or higher, with no individual exam score below 50%, and successfully complete ALL writing assignments to pass this course. This course requires a minimum overall passing grade of “C” to receive credit. The average from your exam scores will be printed on your certificate. However, this is not your final grade since your required writing assignments have not been reviewed. Exceptionally written or poorly written required writing assignments, or violation of the academic integrity policy in the course syllabus, will affect your grade. Fifty percent of your grade is determined by your writing assignments, and your overall exam score determines the other fifty percent.
No grade will be submitted for partial completion of course assignments, regardless of partial score.
| Letter grades will be assigned as follows: 90% to 100% A 80% to 89% B 70% to 79% C 69% – lower F |
Students should refer to/follow the addendum and grading guidelines that come with their course materials for the most current information.
