* A grade of “C+” or “C” is in and of itself a passing grade. However a “C+” or “C” grade is below the required overall grade point average of 3.0. If “C+” and “C” grades total an amount to bring the student’s GPA to below 3.0, then this is not satisfactory performance based on professional expectations.
** Not calculated in the overall GPA.
