At the end of the semester, instructors submit letter grades to indicate the quality of students’ work in a course. Semester and cumulative grade point averages (G.P.A.) are computed at the end of each semester. The grade point average is determined by the ratio of the total number of quality points received to the total number of credits attempted. Only grades earned at Lourdes will be used in computing the cumulative grade point average. Credits accepted from other institutions as part of the student’s program are transferred to the student’s permanent record without grades or quality points. Quality points for each semester of credit are assigned according to the following system.
Grade Achievement
Quality Points Per Hour
Session
Start Date
End Date
Last Day to Drop
Last Date to W/D
Students who wish to repeat a course must inform the Registrar at the time of registration. Students will receive only the credit and quality points from the most recent registration. Although the grade first earned will remain on the record, it will not be counted in the grade point average.
For example: First time: MUS 112 E (E = excluded from G.P.A.) Repeated: MUS 112 I (I = included in G.P.A.)
All courses may only be repeated once. To determine whether a course may be repeated, a student who does not withdraw from a class prior to the financial aid “freeze date” is considered to have “taken” the course.
