Grading Policies

All lower division courses required by the major or minor must be completed with no grade lower than a C- and an overall departmental GPA of 2.0 or above. An exception to this university policy occurs when a grade of C (2.0) for departmental prerequisites/requirements is required by a specific department (see department major requirements) or is mandated by an outside licensing board, e.g., California Board of Registered Nursing.

All upper division courses required by the major or minor must be completed with a grade of C (2.0) or above.

All courses being used to fulfill General Studies requirements must be passed with a grade of C- or better, with the exception of Eng 1A and Eng 1B, which must be completed with a grade of C or better. Courses passed with a grade of D can still count as elective units toward graduation.

Students receiving an F in a course will not earn any credit or units toward graduation.
