132 Dr. Pallavi Patel College of Health Care Sciences—Department of Cardiopulmonary Sciences 2019–2020 Academic Promotions and Progression The progress of each student through the curriculum requires continuous satisfactory academic and professional performance. Substandard performance in any course or failing to exhibit satisfactory professional behavior will be referred to the Committee on Student Progress. (See the Committee on Student Progress in the college section of this handbook.) Academic Warning BSRT students whose semester GPA falls below 2.0 (regardless of the cumulative GPA), or who fail a course, regardless of GPA, may be placed on academic warning. Attendance All of the BSRT Post-Professional courses are designed in distance-learning formats. Each student holds the responsibility to fulfill all class requirements, access recommended resources, and meet the appropriate deadlines for assignment submission and exams. Students are required to access and participate in their web-based classes at least once per week or more, depending on weekly curriculum requirements, in order to complete assignments. Grading Policies and Procedures Courses for the BSRT Post-Professional Program are graded on an alpha scale. Alpha Grade A A- B+ B B- C+ C Scale 4.0 3.7 3.3 3.0 2.7 2.3 2.0 Percent 94–100 90–93 87–89 83–86 80–82 77–79 74–76 C- D+ D F 1.7 1.3 1.0 0.0 70–73 68–69 67–68 66 and below In addition to alpha grading, the BSRT program may use transcript notations outlined in the Dr. Pallavi Patel College of Health Care Sciences section of this handbook. For purposes of retention in the BSRT Post-Professional Program, any core-course grade below a C will be considered a course failure. No more than two courses may be passed through retake. All students receiving a failing grade, less than a C or a grade of 74, in a required core course will be required to repeat the scheduled course and achieve a C or better at its next scheduled offering.
