Academic Reulations COURSE CREDITS The semester hour credit for each course is listed in the course description of this catalo. Each semester hour of credit iven for a course is based on one academic hour (50 minutes) of formalized, structured instructional time per week for 15 weeks. This totals 750 minutes of instruction. In addition, each course requires an examination/ evaluation period. Courses may consist of lectures, out-of-class study, online study, laboratory and/or shop study, or combinations thereof, with credit awarded as follows: Lecture: One academic hour of lecture (includin lecture, seminar, discussion or other similar activities) per week for 15 weeks, plus the examination/evaluation period equals one colleiate semester-hour credit. Laboratory: Two to five academic hours (dependin on the discipline) of laboratory, clinical trainin, supervised work experience, coordinated internship, or other similar activities per week for 15 weeks, plus the examination/evaluation period equals one colleiate semester-hour credit. Asynchronous elearnin Courses: Traditional contact hours combined with learnin activities in which students and faculty are separated by time and place; content is equivalent to that of traditional lecture/laboratory classes. COURSE NUMBERING Courses numbered less than 100 are not applicable toward associate deree prorams. Some developmental courses, with the approval of the Vice President for Academic Affairs and Chief Academic Officer (or desinee), may provide credit applicable to certificate prorams. These courses may not qualify for federal financial aid. Courses numbered 100 throuh 299 are freshman and sophomore courses typically applicable toward associate deree and certificate prorams. GRADING SYSTEM The quality of performance in any academic course is reported by a letter rade, which the instructor is responsible for assinin. The rades of A, B, C, D, P and S are passin rades. Grades of F and U are failin rades. R and I are interim rades. Grades of W and X are final rades carryin no credit. P - PASS No rade point credit. This rade applies only to nondevelopmental specialized courses and seminars approved by the appropriate academic dean. A maximum of seven semester credit hours with a P rade may be applied toward a deree or certificate. S - SATISFACTORY No rade point credit. The rade of S indicates satisfactory completion of course objectives in developmental studies and ESL courses.

31 30 General InformatioN Tidewater Community Collee Catalo U - UNSATISFACTORY No rade point credit. The rade of U is assined when the student has not made satisfactory proress in developmental studies, ESL courses, or courses taken on a Pass/Unsatisfactory basis. R - RE-ENROLL No rade point credit. The R rade may be used as a rade option, in developmental and ESL courses only, when the student has made satisfactory proress but has not completed all of the instructional objectives for developmental studies or ESL courses. Students must re-enroll in the course and pay the specified tuition to complete the course objectives. W - WITHDRAWAL No rade point credit. A rade of W is awarded to students who withdraw or are withdrawn from a course after the add/drop period but prior to the completion of 60 percent of the session. After that time, the student will receive a rade of F except under mitiatin circumstances, which must be approved by the course instructor and the appropriate academic dean. A copy of the withdrawal form and supportin documentation will be placed in the student s academic file. X - AUDIT No credit. Permission from the appropriate academic dean or desinee is required to audit a course. Students must reister throuh the usual reistration process and pay the normal tuition. Audited courses do not count as part of a student s course load. Students desirin to chane status in a course from audit to credit or from credit to audit must do so within the add/drop period for the course. Students who desire to earn credit for a previously audited course must re-enroll in the course for credit and pay normal tuition to earn a rade other than X. Advanced standin credit shall not be awarded for a previously audited course. I - INCOMPLETE No credit. The rade of I is used only for verifiable unavoidable reasons that a student is unable to complete a course within the normal course time. To be eliible to receive an I rade, the student must (1) have satisfactorily completed more than 60% of the course requirements and attendance and (2) must request the faculty member to assin the I rade and indicate why it is warranted. The faculty member has the discretion to decide whether the I rade will be awarded. Since the incomplete extends the enrollment in the course, requirements for satisfactory completion shall be established throuh student/ faculty consultation. In assinin the I rade, the faculty member must complete documentation that (1) states the reason for assinin the rade; (2) specifies the work to be completed and indicates its percentae in relation to the total work of the course; (3) specifies the date by which the work must be completed; and (4) identifies the default rade (B, C, D, F, P, R, or U) based upon course work already completed. Completion dates may not be set beyond the last day of the subsequent semester (to include summer session) without written approval of the campus provost. The student will be provided a copy of the documentation. The instructor must submit a Grade Chane form to chane the I rade to the rade earned after course work is completed. If the work is not completed on time, another rade (B, C, D, F, P, R, or U) must be assined based on the course work already completed. An I rade will be chaned to a W only under documented mitiatin circumstances, which must be approved by the campus provost. A copy of the withdrawal form and supportin documentation will be placed in the student s academic file. COMPUTING THE GRADE POINT AVERAGE (GPA) To determine the GPA, multiply the number of credits for each class by the number of points awarded for the rade received and divide the total number of rade points earned by the number of credits attempted. Credits that do not enerate rade points, such as credits for developmental courses, are not included in the calculation of credits attempted. Grades of P (pass), R (reenroll), S (satisfactory), U (unsatisfactory), and W (withdrawal), I (incomplete), or X (audit) do not receive rade points. SEMESTER GPA To determine a semester GPA, divide the total number of rade points earned in all courses taken in a iven semester by the total number of credits attempted for the semester. CURRICULUM GPA To determine a curriculum GPA, divide the total number of rade points earned in all courses applicable to the student s curriculum by the total number of credits attempted in courses applicable to that curriculum. CUMULATIVE GPA To determine a cumulative rade point averae, divide the total number of rade points earned in all courses by the total number of credits attempted. See Repeated Course Policy below for information on calculatin GPA for non-developmental courses taken more than once. REPEATED COURSE POLICY Beinnin with the fall semester 1996, only the most recent attempt of a repeated course is used to calculate the cumulative GPA, and only credits earned in the most recent attempt are counted toward meetin curriculum requirements. Grades earned durin previous attempts remain on the permanent records of students. Note: This policy applies only to courses first attempted in the summer 1988 or later, and does not affect GPA adjustments made for courses completed and repeated under the previous repeat policy (summer summer 1996).

32 Tidewater Community Collee Catalo General InformatioN 31 Some courses are exempt from consideration as repeats and an adjustment to GPA is not made. Exempted courses are those numbered in the 90s, 93s, 95s, 96s, 97s, 98s, and 99s; courses identified by the phrase may be repeated for credit ; and selected other courses. Periodically, the VCCS will rename or renumber courses, but they remain equivalent to the courses as previously named or numbered. In such cases, completion of a renumbered/renamed course may be determined to be a repeat of a course completed previously under a different department and/or course number. These determinations are made on a collee-wide basis, and exceptions cannot be made for individual students. Implementation of this policy does not affect GPA calculations for prior terms or academic, financial, or administrative events that have occurred in the past. Direct any questions to the coordinator of Enrollment Services. LIMIT ON REPEATING A COURSE Students are limited to two attempts in the same credit or developmental course for the purpose of improvin their rades. (Grades of A, B, C, D, F, I, P, R, S, U, X and W count as attempts.) The appropriate academic dean must approve exceptions to this policy. This limitation does not apply to certain courses identified as repeatable for credit. The process for appealin final course rades is outlined in the Student Handbook. examinations Students are expected to take examinations as scheduled by their instructors. No exceptions will be made without permission of instructors and academic deans. COURSE ATTENDANCE Students should be present and on time for all scheduled class and laboratory meetins. Instructors do not have to admit students who arrive late. If students add classes or reister after the first day of classes, the students are counted absent from all class meetins missed. If students are absent more than 15 percent of scheduled instructional time, attendance may be defined as unsatisfactory. This calculation includes absences occurrin durin the add/drop period. Instructors may establish more strinent attendance policies, and students are responsible for understandin the attendance requirements for each course in which they are enrolled. When instructors determine student absences constitute unsatisfactory attendance, students may be withdrawn from courses. Students will receive W rades durin the first 60 percent of courses. If students are withdrawn after 60 percent of courses, rades of F (or U in the case of developmental courses) will be assined unless students can document mitiatin circumstances. Students who are withdrawn from courses because of unsatisfactory attendance are not eliible for refunds of tuition and fees. Academic Standin Students are considered to be in ood academic standin if they maintain semester minimum GPAs of 2.00, are eliible to re-enroll at the collee and are not on academic suspension or dismissal status.

Students on academic probation are ineliible for appointive or elective offices in student oranizations unless special permission is ranted by the campus Dean of Student Services. Students must consult counselors or academic advisors before reisterin and usually are required to carry reduced course loads the next semester. Note: Althouh cumulative GPAs between 1.5 and 1.99 may not result in formal academic probation, students must earn a minimum of 2.0 in their curricula to receive associate derees or certificates. ACADEMIC SUSPENSION Students on academic probation who fail to earn minimum semester GPAs of 1.50 shall be placed on suspension only after they have attempted 24 or more semester credits.
