At the end of each semester, students will access final grades via\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/advisor.rccc.edu\/\">My Navigator<\/a>\u00a0based on the following Scale. Health programs and Developmental Studies courses are graded on a variation of this scale.<\/p>\n<p>Students enrolled in Associate Degree Nursing, Practical Nursing, Dental Assisting, Radiography, Occupational Therapy Assistant, and Physical Therapist Assistant programs should refer to the specific program webpage for the numerical grade required in related courses. Each program will list the required minimum grade for admission to and continuation in the program. All health program students should refer to the specific program handbook regarding the minimum grade to be earned for program progression.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">Effective for Fall 2025 developmental courses, a final average of 70 or above is required for satisfactory completion. Students earning a final, numerical average below 70 will receive the grade of \u201cF\u201d (Failing) and must register again for the course.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><strong><em>Notes:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"p2\">Grades of D, AU and CE do not apply in developmental courses, which are noncredit and are not included in the Grade-Point Average (GPA).<\/li>\n<li class=\"p2\">Prior to Fall 2025, completion of developmental courses resulted in grades of P (Passed), R (Repeat) or CC (Course Completed).

The student and the instructor must agree via a contract in advance of the end of the term, all work to be completed no later than the contracted date or the end of the next academic term. The \u201cI\u201d is computed in the Grade Point average as \u201c0\u201d quality points. However, when a student completes the provisions necessary for the removal of an \u201cI\u201d, the \u201cI\u201d will be removed from the student\u2019s record and replaced by the grade earned. The affected GPA will then be recomputed using the grade earned. Failure to meet the provisions for removing the \u201cI\u201d will result in an \u201cF\u201d at the end of the next academic term.<\/p>\n<h3>Grade of Incomplete Emergency (IE)<\/h3>\n<p>This grading option is only invoked at the direction of the NCCCS and the College during declared emergency situations, and may be revoked when no longer required. Students may receive up to one year to successfully complete course requirements. There is still a form, and there must be agreement between the teacher and the student on the material to be completed and the timeframe to get the work completed.<\/p>\n<h3>Grade of Withdraw (W)<\/h3>\n<p>Students who withdraw or are withdrawn from a course on or prior to the 65% point for any reason, including the attendance policy, will be assigned a grade of \u201cW\u201d. In accordance with the North Carolina Community College refund policy, tuition refunds are only permitted up to the 10% of each semester\/term.<\/p>\n<h3>Grade of Withdraw Emergency (WE)<\/h3>\n<p>This grading option is only invoked at the direction of the NCCCS and the College during declared emergency situations, and may be revoked when no longer required. Students having a compelling reason to withdraw from the class are allowed to do so until the end of the class.<\/p>\n<h3>Grade of Audit (AU)<\/h3>\n<p>Students who wish to audit courses must register for those courses. If an audit is not declared at the time of registration, students must obtain approval from the instructor of the class and submit a drop\/add withdrawal to student services for processing by the end of the 10% point of the semester. Students auditing courses receive no credit but are encouraged to attend class, participate in discussions and take examinations. Normal attendance policies will apply. Students\u00a0withdrawing\u00a0during the semester will be given a grade of &#8220;W.&#8221; Fees for audits are the same as for regular enrollment. Academic credit is not earned for audited coursework. Therefore, any audited coursework will not be considered for transfer credit toward any other RCCC program. Audited courses are not eligible for transfer credit to another institution.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"TextRun SCXW245123035 BCX2\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\" data-contrast=\"none\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW245123035 BCX2\">The North Carolina Community College System <\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW245123035 BCX2\">established<\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW245123035 BCX2\"> policies that <\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW245123035 BCX2\">permit<\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW245123035 BCX2\"> senior citizens to audit courses without payment of tuition.

The examination may be written, oral, a performance test, or a combination of these.<\/p>\n<p>To seek credit by examination, a student should obtain guidance from his\/her faculty advisor, approval from the program head of the course in question, and must be registered for the course for which credit by examination is sought. The examination for credit must be administered by the instructor during the first eight class days of the semester. Fees for credit by examination are the same as for regular enrollment. If the examination is completed satisfactorily with a grade of &#8220;C&#8221; or better, the instructor will then complete a &#8220;Credit By Examination&#8221; form and forward it to the Office of the Registrar for a grade of &#8220;CE&#8221; to be awarded. A student who is unsuccessful with the examination may not request a second attempt but may remain in the course through completion of the semester. The decision of the examining faculty is final.<\/p>\n<p>Credits earned by examination will be entered on the student&#8217;s permanent record, but quality points will not be awarded for such credit. <em>Hours earned by credit by examination will not be used to satisfy VA or Pell Grant requirements.<\/em> Hours earned by credit by examination are not transferable to other colleges. For further information, contact the program head of your area of study or the Student Services Office. Students receiving financial aid, scholarships or third-party payment of tuition are responsible for checking with the\u00a0Financial Aid Office\u00a0before requesting Credit by Examination.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Student Records and RegistrationAbout Records &amp; Registration Student Records and Responsibility Confidentiality of Student Records &#8211; FERPA Degree and Enrollment Verification Diploma and Certificate Replacement Transcript Request Policy Maintaining an [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":118,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-84","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rccc.edu\/recordsregistration\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/84","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rccc.edu\/recordsregistration\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rccc.edu\/recordsregistration\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rccc.edu\/recordsregistration\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/118"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rccc.edu\/recordsregistration\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=84"}],"version-history":[{"count":46,"href":"https:\/\/www.rccc.edu\/recordsregistration\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/84\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14427,"href":"https:\/\/www.rccc.edu\/recordsregistration\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/84\/revisions\/14427"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rccc.edu\/recordsregistration\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=84"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
