Catalog 2022-2023

Grading System

At the end of each semester, students view their grades through their Workday account at irsc.okta.com  In addition, students may evaluate their academic progress and status each semester by reviewing their Academic Progress Report in Workday.

The following grading system is used:

A Excellent (4 grade points per semester hour)
B Good (3 grade points per semester hour)
C Average (2 grade points per semester hour)
D Poor (1 grade point per semester hour)
F Failure (no grade points)
I* Incomplete (no grade points)
S Satisfactory (no grade points)
U Unsatisfactory (no grade points)
W Withdrawn (no grade points)
NR Not Reported (no grade points)

Some courses require a grade of C or better for graduation. To verify which courses require a C, students can review their Academic Progress Report or contact an advisor.

*An incomplete grade (I), for which coursework is not completed by the end of the following semester will be converted to an F or a U, depending upon the grading method of the class.

Given appropriate advisement, a student may take a course for S (Satisfactory) or U (Unsatisfactory) graded credit and count it towards their program. Courses taken for S or U graded credit will not convert to any other type of grade.

The student’s grade point average is computed by dividing the total number of quality points earned by the total number of hours attempted.
