Grading System
Grades have the following functions:
- To recognize performance in a particular course.
- To act as a basis of screening for other courses, programs or graduate school.
- To inform the student of his/her level of achievement in a particular course.
- To stimulate the student to learn.
- To inform prospective employers of the student's achievements.
The following grading systems are in effect for courses taken through the College of the Extended University:
