For most courses, the final grade for the course is determined by the weighted letter
grades of the student’s attendance and exams (midterms and finals).
The letter grade of student’s attendance for the session is converted from the quotient
of number of days present over the number of course days scheduled according to
the Grade Conversion Table.
The student is marked as tardy should he/she miss more than 5 minutes but less than
50% of the scheduled class time due to late arrival or early departure. Four tardies
are equivalent to one absence.
The grading rubric varies depending on the courses. The following is only an example:
Course Grade = 30% (Attendance)
+ 30% (Midterm) + 40% (Final)
A student who withdraws from a course will receive the symbol "W" (Withdrawal) for
the course, which has no impact on the GPA. The credit hours for the course are
counted as "attempted but not achieved".
