The following grades are currently used at CSC:
| Letter Grade | Grade Descriptions |
|---|---|
| A | Superior performance |
| B | Excellent performance |
| C | Average performance |
| D | Below average performance |
| F | Failure to meet minimum requirements, or student failed to officially withdraw from course |
| I | A student may request for a grade of Incomplete "I" if the student has a justifiable reason for being unable to complete the course by the established end of the academic session. The instructor and student will designate a due date for all work to be completed, at which point the student will be assessed a final grade. The due date for the course to be completed must be less than one semester from the end of the term in which the course was initially offered. A request for an extension of the due date can be submitted to the Vice President for Academic Affairs by the instructor, should extenuating circumstances occur. Should the student not successfully complete the course requirements by the established due date, the grade automatically becomes an “F”. For purposes of computing the student’s grade point average (GPA), a course with a grade of Incomplete “I” will not be included in the computation. Once a final letter grade has been submitted, the course will be included in the GPA computation. |
| IP | In Progress indicates a course continuing into the next term. Grades are recorded at the end of the course. |
| P | Passing performance; requires previous registration as Pass/Fail. |
| W | Indicates official withdrawal from a course; requires notice filed by deadline. |
| AU | Indicates non-graded, audit participation in a course; requires previous registration for an Audit. |
| AD | Administrative Drop |
| AW | Administrative Withdrawal |
No grade of C or lower may be transferred into a graduate program from other institutions. Additionally, grades of Pass/Fail or Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory are not accepted in a graduate program. For more information regarding specific graduation requirements, please refer to your graduate program section of this catalog. No grade of D, F, I, W, AU, or IP will count toward meeting graduation requirements. If applicable, any approved transfer credits will be converted to CSC’s grading and semester credit standards.
CSC assigns quality points to letter grades as follows:
To determine grade point average, the total number of quality points earned for each attempted course credit is divided by the total credits attempted (including semester hours passed and failed). The grade point average is computed only for courses taken at Chadron State College for non-teaching majors, but utilizes all courses from all institutions attended for teaching majors (Bachelor of Science in Education degree). Contact the Records Office at www.csc.edu/registrar for more information.
Civil behavior enhances the learning environment and is expected at all times. Courtesy and respect for others are essential elements to the learning process. Courses offered through Chadron State College welcome a difference of opinion, discourse, and debate within a civil environment. Please refer to NSCS Board Policy 3100 (Conduct and Discipline; Students) for further information.
Please refer to the Chadron State College Class Attendance and/or Participation policy for further details.
