and summer “I” grade made up by end of December. Otherwise no credit will

be allowed for the course and the “I” will revert to a “WF.” The “I” grade is not

used if the student plans to retake the course at a later date. It is included in

attempted credits but not in the grade point index.)

nontraditional, self-paced courses. Permits a student to continue in a course while

satisfactorily progressing toward completion of course objectives.)

during weeks three through 10 or two-thirds the length of the course. It is

included in attempted credits but not in the grade point index.)

from a course at any point in the course and has a passing grade. It is included in

attempted credits but not in the grade point index.)

Thats a bummer. No more A minuses for me I guess.

Dumb question...this won't affect the grades we've currently earned, right? Sigh...all these changes!

Actually, to be more specific to CCRI nursing:

A 91-100

B 81-90

C 75-80

D 70-74

F 0-69

you need a C to move on; therefore, a 74 and below is really a failure.

Good Luck!
