Awarding grades to students is the responsibility of the course instructor. The grading system and grade point equivalents are as follows:
| A | Excellent | 4 grade points/unit |
| B | Good | 3 grade points/unit |
| C | Satisfactory | 2 grade points/unit |
| D | Unsatisfactory | 1 grade point/unit |
| F | Failing | 0 grade points/unit |
| FW | Failing | 0 grade points/unit |
The FW grade indicates a failing grade because the student has ceased to participate in the class sometime after the withdrawal deadline. The FW grade is treated in the same manner as an F grade for the purposes of calculating grade point average, course repetition, and academic standings for probation/dismissal.
The following grades are not used in computing grade point average:
| I | Incomplete |
| W | Withdrawal |
| MW | Military Withdrawal |
| CR | Credit |
| P | Pass |
| NC | No Credit |
| NP | No Pass |
| IP | In Progress |
| RD | Report Delayed |
