Roseman pass/fail needs to change to actual PGA grade!!!

Published

As of right now our school is set up as a pass/fail grade which requires us to get 90 percent or higher on everything to pass. This is an equivalent of a 4.0. This is nice but we have come to find that most graduate programs don't except this grading system and the ones that do see it as a 3.0 instead of a 4.0 which isn't right. This program is setting us up for failure. We need the support of others to get this changed to an actual gpa so that we can achieve our dreams and goals.

What type of program is this? 'Roseman' is not enough information for us to know that.

In most nursing programs a 90% is not an A.. usually requires 92-93% to be considered an A.

My understanding was that Roseman was non-profit. It's why I was more willing to sign up and attend because I felt it made them more trustworthy. Apparently not.

That's very true. The program I attended required a 94% or higher for an A. A few courses would give an A- (3.5) for 91% though 93.9%.
