Info

Thereafter, the student may withdraw only with the approval of the College designee upon demonstration of extenuating circumstances. A student - initiated withdrawal must be requested on the College's official withdrawal form which may be obtained in the Counseling Center or Registrar's Office. The WTH will appear on the student's permanent academic record but will not be used to calculate cumulative grade point average (GPA). WTH’s will be counted as registered hours to determine academic warning and exclude status. Midterm Grades Midterm grades are issued to students one week after the mid-point of the term. Students receiving grades below "C" should meet with their instructor immediately to seek ways improve their standing in the course. A student whose mid-term grade is not "C" or better in the first course in a sequence will not be allowed to pre-register for the next course in that sequence. Repeating A Course To Raise A Grade A student who has received a "D" or "F" in a course required for degree or certificate completion may repeat the course once. Only the last grade earned will be calculated in the student's GPA, although both grades will appear on the permanent academic record. Repeatable Courses Certain Art, Music, Physical Education and Theater courses may be repeated more than once for credit. See course descriptions (catalog) for specific courses. All grades earned are counted in the student's cumulative GPA and all hours attempted including ADW's and WTH's earned are counted as registered hours to determine academic warning and exclude status. Privacy or Records Students have the right to inspect and review their educational records according to established procedure. Information from a student's record may not be disclosed without the student's prior written consent, except when such consent is not required by the Family Rights and Privacy Act. Transcripts of Academic Records The office of Records will provide a transcript of a student's academic record upon request. All requests for transcripts must be in writing, either by letter or on the Transcript Request Form supplied by the Office of Records. No transcripts will be released without the written permission of the student. Therefore, transcript requests by telephone will not be honored at Malcolm X College. Each student is entitled to one transcript without charge. A fee of $5.00 is charged for each additional copy. Written requests for the appropriate fee must accompany transcripts. The College reserves the right to withhold transcripts of 20
person who has past due monetary obligations such as tuition, fees or materials. Cumulative Grade Point Average Academic Status Cumulative grade point average (GPA) is calculated on the basis of all grades, A through F, earned in college credit courses at the City College of Chicago. If a student repeats a course in which a grade of "D" or "F" was received, only the last grade earned will be counted in the grade point average although both grades will appear on the permanent academic record. All grades earned in allowed repeatable courses will be calculated in a student's GPA. To receive a degree or certificate, a student must have a cumulative grade point average of at least 2.0 in courses required for a degree or certificate and an overall cumulative grade point average of at least 2.0 in all courses. Academic Warning Students who do not achieve the minimum required GPA at the end of each term would be placed on academic warning for the following term. Students will be informed of academic warning status on the final grade report. A student whose GPA has not improved to meet the minimum cumulative level by the end of the warning term will be excluded. Currently enrolled students on academic warning will not be allowed to pre-register for the following term. Students on academic warning from previous semesters and not currently enrolled may be permitted to pre-register at the same college for the following term. 21
