Quality points will not be used to compute the student’s term GPA.

Please note:

  • Students must pass all courses in the major including supporting courses from other disciplines, with a grade of "C" or better. Thus, students who receive a grade of "D" or "F" in any course in the major are required to repeat that course at Saint Augustine’s College.
  • "W" Withdrawal is Non-Punitive (not used to compute the student’s cumulative GPA)
