Each person serving in the United State Armed Forces, assigned to duty in Utah, and members of the family of such persons who live in Utah shall be deemed residents for the purpose of this act. 7. Any American Indian who is enrolled on the tribal rolls by a tribe whose reservation or trust lands lie partly or wholly within Utah or whose border is at any point contiguous with the border of Utah or any American Indian who is a member of a federally recognized tribe and who has graduated from a high school in Utah, shall be entitled to resident status. A prospective student whose credentials indicate out-of-state status is classified as a non-resident. All requests for resident classification must be filed with the Office of the Registrar. Grade System —The current grade system consists of the following: A Excellent B- Good D+ Sub-Standard A- Excellent C + Standard D Sub-Standard B+ Good C Standard D- Sub-Standard B Good C- Standard* E Failure *A C- grade average is sub-standard in regards to graduation. Other symbols used to indicate the status of a course record include: CR—Credit T—Work in Progress NC-No Credit W-Withdrawal AU-Audit UW-Unofficial I—Incomplete Withdrawal Grade Points —Grade points are earned according to the following schedule: 2.7 D+ 1.3 2.3 D 1.0 2.0 D- 0.7 1.7 E 0.0 UW 0.0 Note: Only letter grades (A through E & UW) are used in computing grade point average. The total number of grade points is divided by the total number of credit hours of the class for which the grade points have been accumulated to determine the student's grade point average (GPA). A GPA of 3.5 represents "Honors" for the quarter. Credit/No-Credit Policy and Grading Procedure —The basic objective of the Credit/No-Credit program is to allow students to enroll in classes without the pressures that often develop in the letter grade system. I. Eligibility of students for CR/NC grading: A. Freshman students may take one class per quarter on a credit/no-credit basis. B. Students with 44 credit hours may register for no more than two classes per quarter on credit/no-credit basis. C. Non-Matriculated students automatically receive only CR/NC grades. II. Further Criteria for a CR/NC system: A. A maximum of 30 hours credit for CR/NC courses can be used for graduation exclusive of student teaching credit, special 48 Student Records A 4.0 B- A- 3.7 C + B + 3.3 C B 3.0 C- examination credit, School of Education IPT program (Individualized Performance Based Teacher Education Program), Nursery School Practice Teaching, Methods classes, Family Life Practicums, Radiological Technology Practicums, Respiratory Therapy Clinical Applications and lab classes, Engineering Technology Senior Projects, and Convocations credits. B. No class taken an a CR/NC basis will satisfy major, minor, general area, or specific course requirements (with the exception of the specific course requirements in Physical Education and those exceptions noted in II A above). C. Grades on the CR/NC system are not included in computing the term or cumulative grade point average. A grade of CR is recorded for letter grades of D and above on the student's academic record. D. If the student changes major, the Director of Records Office reconverts to the letter grade given by the class instructor those credits earned under the CR/NC system. E. Grades of CR/NC may not be used to satisfy the repeat course policy. III. Mechanics: A. Choice of the CR/NC classes should be made during registration but a class registration may be changed during the first sixty percent of the quarter. A student may add a CR/NC class during the specified period for adding classes. If the student withdraws from a CR/NC class, he withdraws under the current procedure for withdrawal. B. The class instructor is unaware whether a student is taking a class for regular credit or a CR/NC grade and gives only letter grades on the Final Grade Report to Registrar. Incomplete Grade —An Incomplete may be given by an instructor only when the student who, after having completed approximately 80% or more of the required work, is unable to complete the classwork for a legitimate reason, such as illness or accident, and, in the opinion of the instructor, could complete the required work without re-registering for the class. When giving an Incomplete, the instructor must file an Instructor's Report of an Incomplete with the Academic Department and Office of the Registrar, specifying in detail: (1) what work must be done in order to remove the Incomplete; (2) the time deadline for completing the work (no longer than a twelve-month period following the receipt of the Incomplete); and (3) the letter grade which is to replace the "I" if the work is not completed. The student must sign the report, and receive a copy of the report from the instructor at the time the report is prepared. An Incomplete remains on the official student record and the instructor's Final Grade Report to the Registrar until the date specified by the instructor. After that date, the "I" will be changed to the grade specified on the form: or it will be changed prior to that date to the grade submitted by the instructor on an Authorization of Grade Change form. When an Authorization of Grade Change form is properly approved and 49 | -irrft |
