Academic status is
expressed in a quality point index. A
student's quality point index is found by
dividing the sum of quality points by the
sum of "Hours Attempted." For analysis of
academic status, Savannah State computes
both a semester index and cumulative index.
In either case, for a student to be:
|
Semester Hours Attempted |
GPA |
|
1 - 30 |
|
1.5 |
|
31 - 60 |
|
1.7 |
|
61 + |
|
2.0 |
To acknowledge publicly
the high scholastic achievement of its
students, Savannah State follows the
traditional practice of publishing at the
end of each semester a Dean's List.
Placement on this list is merited by a
minimum of 12 hours enrollment with a
semester average of 3.5.
Part-time students qualify provided they
have completed 15 semester hours with an
accumulative average of 3.5 for no less than
two courses and six semester hours.
Students doing their student teaching are
eligible for the Dean's List if they have a
3.5 in course for that one semester and if
they have been on the Dean's List for the
two semesters immediately preceding the
semester of student teaching.
If you change your mind
about the classes you registered for, don't
panic. During the first two days of each
semester you can drop or add a class in the
Registrar's Office. A student who must drop
a course or withdraw from college after
registration must complete the proper
withdrawal form. The date of withdrawal is
not the day the student stops going to class
but the day he/she properly fills out the
withdraw form and return it to the Office of
the Registrar. A student who fails to comply
with this regulation will receive an "F" for
all courses for which he/she has registered
and forfeit all claims to tuition refunds.
Any student who reduces his/her course load
after the first day of class is not entitled
to a refund.
Savannah State's grading system is based on
letters.
| A |

| B |

| C |

| D |

| F |
