1973-1974 Academic Catalog

36 Cedarville College Grade Points and Point Averages Cedarville College uses the "four point system" to determine academic averages. Grade points are awarded as follows: Each quarter hour of A-4 grade points Each quarter hour of B-3 grade points Each quarter hour of C-2 grade points Each quarter hour of D-1 grade point Each quarter 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 Warning and Suspension Any student with a cumulative grade point average of less than 2.00 will receive notification of academic warning. If academic performance warrants, a student may be suspended at the end of any quarter. All students with forty-five hours at Cedarvi lie are eligible for suspension if their cumula– tive average is less than 2.00. Faculty members and other counselors are readily available to discuss student progress. Students in academic difficulty must utilize these person– nel to help them find solutions to their academic problems. They must submit to the academic dean's office the name of the counselor with whom they are working by the end of the first full week of the following quarter. Academic warning implies no particular restrictions on college activities, but should be considered as a serious warning that the student faces academic suspension unless his grades improve. The academic status of transfer students will be determined by using the total number of hours for which credit has been accepted in transfer at Cedarvi lie College. Honors and Awards The Dean's Honor List. Until final awards are announced at Commence– ment, the highest academic honor possible to attain at Cedarville College is to be included on the Dean's Honor List. This list of high-ranking students is published at the end of each regular quarter. The requirements for the Dean's Honor List are as follows: 1. A student must have a 3.75 grade point average. 2. A student must have no grade for the quarter lower than a 11 B. 11 3. A student must carry a minimum of 12 quarter hours of college work. 4. A student must complete every course he is taking by the end of the quarter when grades are turned in by the faculty. Any grade of "incomplete" will preclude a student's candidacy for the Dean's Honor List.
