The course faculty/instructor determines the grades for each course with specific requirements defined within the course syllabus.  Evaluation methods assess student achievement of specific educational learning objectives, and in a broader sense, their communication skills and professional behaviors.  How a final grade is computed may include but are not limited to, written examinations, practical examinations, skill checks, oral presentations, written assignments, laboratory exercises, online class participation, clinical participation, and clinical performance. 

All academic courses are graded according to the scale below.  Where objective testing is used, scores and grades are correlated as follows: 

1. Final course grades are calculated to two decimal points. (xx.xx)
2. Students are required to achieve a final grade of “C” or higher (i.e., ≥ 70.00%) for all academic courses.  It is the responsibility of any student who is underperforming to seek the assistance of the course instructor and their advisor.
3. Incompletes will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis with consultation between faculty involved in the specific course, the Registrar, Program Director, Director of Student Affairs, and/or Director of Clinical Education, as appropriate. It is the student’s responsibility to coordinate with the appropriate faculty member and complete all remaining coursework. In the case of an incomplete, the policies and processes of progression in the program will be followed. 
4. For the final course grade, the student has forty-eight (48) hours from grade posting to initiate the appeal process within the DPT program.
