Subject: Minor change to S-NC grade conversion map

Ryan, Annie, and Grace:

One minor change has been made to the S-NC grade conversion map for PharmD courses (in the students' favor). A "C-" will map to an "S," not "NC." The guidelines have been modified to reflect more accurately our progression policy.

  *   Grades of A+ to C- convert to S (satisfactory): able to progress, no impact on GPA
  *   Grades of D+ and lower convert to NC (no credit): must retake class, will delay progression toward graduation, no impact on GPA



The full revised document is attached for re-distribution.
