Graduate GPA Policy
Graduate students who have graduate GPA's below 3.00 or who have received more than two graduate course grades of C may become eligible for graduation as follows:
  • If they have more than two C's, they may repeat any course(s) in which they earned a C and substitute the repeated class(es) (assuming they earn a higher grade) in their program. Grades from both the original and repeated classes are used in the calculation of their GPA, however.
  • If a student wishes to substitute for a course in which they have earned a C, any course other than a repetition of the course, permission must be obtained from their Advisor. Permission will be granted only for academic courses in their major field, preferably with similar subject matter or content. Again, grades from both the original and the substituted course are used in the calculation of their GPA.
  • Students wishing to use courses in practicum, special topics, or courses in other departments to improve their GPA may do so only with the approval of their advisor. Such courses, however, cannot be used to remove the deficiency of more than two C's and will not be counted as part of their approved 36-hour program.
Effective Fall 1980
