1963-1964 Academic Catalog

Cedarville College ACADEMIC INFORMATION GRADE POINTS AND POINT AVERAGES Cedarville College uses the "four point system" to determine aca– demic averages. Grade points are awarded as follows : Each semester hour of A-4 grade points Each semester hour of B-3 grade points Each semester hour of C-2 grade points Each semester hour of D-1 grade points Each semester hour of F-0 grade points The grade point average is computed by dividing the total grade points earned by the total hours attempted. ACADEMIC PROBATION A freshman student who fails to achieve a grade point average of 1.75 will be placed on academic probation for the following semester. For students of the sophomore, junior, and senior classes, an average of at least 2.00 grade points must be achieved to avoid probation. The probation period may be terminated by any student who achieves a grade point average of 2.00 by the end of the first nine weeks. During the probation period, the student will be permitted to carry only 12 to 14 semester hours, will not be employed by the College, and will be ineligible to hold a campus office or to participate in athletic or musi– cal activities which represent the College, with the exception of his Christian service assignment. It may also be necessary to limit the student's social activities during the probation period. ACADEMIC DISMISSAL Since a cumulative grade point average of 2.00 is necessary for graduation, all students who fail to achieve or maintain the cumulative grade point average outlined in the following table may be subject to dismissal from Cedarville College.
