SELECTING A PROGRAM OF STUDY<br />
www.lwtech.edu/advising<br />
STARTING A NEW CAREER<br />
Deciding which career is best for you can be a very<br />
difficult decision. LWIT’s pr<strong>of</strong>essional advisers and<br />
counselors are available to help you match your interests<br />
and abilities with the career that fits you best. The first<br />
step in starting your new career decision process is to<br />
take a self-inventory <strong>of</strong> what is most important to you.<br />
Below are some <strong>of</strong> the major things you need to consider:<br />
YOUR INTERESTS<br />
Your interests play an important role in career selection.<br />
When you enjoy what you do, you increase your chances for<br />
success because you find your work satisfying and fulfilling.<br />
YOUR SKILLS AND ABILITIES<br />
Identify what you are good at and then talk to others<br />
about your strengths. Your skills and abilities are the key<br />
to knowing yourself better and making a positive career<br />
decision. When you enter a program that features your<br />
strengths, class work will be easier for you.<br />
YOUR WORK STYLE<br />
Think about the kind <strong>of</strong> work structure and the kind <strong>of</strong><br />
environment you want to work in. Consider the amount<br />
<strong>of</strong> responsibility you want and the amount <strong>of</strong> stress you<br />
can handle. These personal characteristics affect your<br />
career success. Think about whether you prefer to work<br />
alone or with others, be your own boss, work outdoors,<br />
work in a large company or a small business, or interact<br />
with the public.<br />
YOUR VALUES<br />
You make all kinds <strong>of</strong> personal value decisions–where to<br />
live, what to do for entertainment, what kind <strong>of</strong> clothes<br />
to wear or food to eat. Think about these choices and by<br />
assessing them, you will help identify the priorities in<br />
your life.<br />
YOUR LIFESTYLE<br />
The kind <strong>of</strong> career you choose can influence the kind <strong>of</strong> life<br />
you live. For example, some health care workers <strong>of</strong>ten work<br />
weekends, but they find the work rewarding and good for<br />
their self-esteem because it fulfills a personal value.<br />

DEGREE- OR CERTIFICATE-SEEKING STUDENTS<br />
<strong>Lake</strong> <strong>Washington</strong> <strong>Institute</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Technology</strong> requires that<br />
persons seeking admission to a degree or certificate<br />
program <strong>of</strong> study demonstrate the ability to perform<br />
entry-level reading, writing and math skills before enrolling<br />
in a technical training program by completing a placement<br />
assessment. Additional testing in math, reading, writing,<br />
and listening skills for Adult Basic Education and English<br />
as a Second Language (ESL) placement is administered<br />
by the basic skills program using a different assessment<br />
tool. The purpose <strong>of</strong> these placement tests is to assess<br />
each student’s academic strengths and weaknesses, help<br />
determine proper course placement, and to determine<br />
possible learning needs before enrollment. Test results are<br />
used by students and advisers to select appropriate basic<br />
skill, academic and technical courses.<br />
An <strong>of</strong>ficial college transcript indicating satisfactory<br />
completion with a 2.0 or better in English and/or math<br />
from an accredited college may be accepted in lieu <strong>of</strong><br />
placement tests. An evaluation <strong>of</strong> <strong>of</strong>ficial transcripts<br />
from an accredited college may also result in transfer<br />
<strong>of</strong> other college credits to <strong>Lake</strong> <strong>Washington</strong> <strong>Institute</strong><br />
<strong>of</strong> <strong>Technology</strong>. Students must submit <strong>of</strong>ficial copies<br />
<strong>of</strong> transcripts from all former colleges to Enrollment<br />
Services for an <strong>of</strong>ficial evaluation.<br />
The college requires a minimum placement score in<br />
English and/or math for enrollment in many technical<br />
courses and programs. Placement score requirements<br />
for English, math and technical programs are available<br />
in student services, and the student assessment center<br />
where tests are administered.<br />
Exceptions to the published requisite scores for<br />
enrollment into specific courses and, in extraordinary<br />
cases, programs <strong>of</strong> study are made by the Dean(s) <strong>of</strong><br />
the area <strong>of</strong> study or designee.<br />
Students who place into Adult Basic Education (ABE) or<br />
English as Second Language (ESL) classes must satisfactorily<br />
complete those courses at an appropriate level before<br />
enrolling in a technical program or college level course that<br />
has basic skill minimum requirements. Students who have<br />
not completed courses or placement tests in all subject areas<br />
(math, English) need to be tested or have placement scores<br />
in those areas for appropriate placement into courses.<br />

COMPLETE WITHDRAWAL (DROP ALL COURSES)<br />
A student may withdraw from all courses through the<br />
eighth week <strong>of</strong> the quarter, or the equivalent proportion<br />
for shorter courses or courses with irregular start and end<br />
dates. It is the student’s responsibility to drop all classes.<br />
Further information is available in the Class Schedule.<br />
Official withdrawals occurring after the tenth instructional<br />
day <strong>of</strong> the quarter are posted with a W on the student’s<br />
transcript. A grade <strong>of</strong> W does not count in GPA calculations.<br />
Not attending a class does not withdraw a student or<br />
create refund eligibility.<br />
After the eighth week, an un<strong>of</strong>ficial withdrawal from<br />
the college will result in each instructor assigning the<br />
appropriate grade. Depending on the start date and<br />
length <strong>of</strong> the class, an early withdrawal during the first<br />
two weeks will not be recorded on the transcript.<br />
ADMINISTRATIVE WITHDRAWALS<br />

classes require completion <strong>of</strong> prerequisite coursework<br />
to ensure students are prepared for course content and<br />
rigor. Students must meet the requirements <strong>of</strong> a class<br />
either by grade, transfer coursework, placement score, or<br />
faculty permission.<br />
Conduct sanctions: When a student is found in violation<br />
<strong>of</strong> one or more <strong>of</strong> the student conduct codes published in<br />
the student handbook, administrative withdrawal may be<br />
selected as an appropriate sanction.<br />

opportunities for all students, instructors may request the<br />
Enrollment Services <strong>of</strong>fice to administratively withdraw<br />
students who (1) Do not attend the first and/or any<br />
subsequent class meetings AND (2) Do not notify the<br />
instructor in advance <strong>of</strong> the absence.<br />

FINANCIAL AID<br />
West Building, W209 | (425) 739-8106<br />
financialaid@lwtech.edu<br />
To help finance your education, we encourage you to<br />
inform yourself about financial aid through our website<br />
www.lwtech.edu/financialaid, by reading the available<br />
literature, or by contacting the Financial Aid Office. <strong>Lake</strong><br />
<strong>Washington</strong> <strong>Institute</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Technology</strong> believes people<br />
should have the opportunity to achieve their educational<br />
goals and the Financial Aid Office is here to help support<br />
you in your educational efforts.<br />
Financial aid is available for eligible students who enroll<br />
either to earn a certificate or a degree. Students and their<br />
families need not be low-income to qualify for some<br />
kinds <strong>of</strong> financial aid. By applying for financial aid as early<br />
as possible and meeting the institutional priority date,<br />
students have the best chance <strong>of</strong> being reviewed before<br />
the beginning <strong>of</strong> each quarter, and the best chance <strong>of</strong><br />
maximum funds eligibility each financial aid year.<br />
Financial aid is intended to add to but not replace a<br />
person’s financial resources. If combined resources are<br />
not sufficient to cover expenses, you may be eligible<br />
for financial aid in the form <strong>of</strong> grants, scholarships,<br />
low-interest loans and student employment. You must<br />
demonstrate a financial need to be eligible for most<br />
types <strong>of</strong> assistance. Financial need is calculated as the<br />
difference between the cost <strong>of</strong> attending school and<br />
what you and your family can afford to pay.<br />
SAMPLE CALCULATION:<br />
Cost <strong>of</strong> Attendance<br />
– Expected Family Contribution<br />
= Financial Need<br />
The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is<br />
the basic form to apply for assistance and is your passport<br />
to financial aid. Information on this form determines<br />
your eligibility for grants, scholarships, work study and<br />
low-interest loans.<br />

needed may be downloaded from the Financial Aid<br />
website at www.lwtech.edu/financialaid.<br />
Stay in touch with the Financial Aid Office to be<br />
certain that all information has been received to<br />

Maintaining Eligibility for Financial Aid<br />
SATISFACTORY ACADEMIC PROGRESS REQUIREMENTS<br />
FOR FINANCIAL AID RECIPIENTS<br />
To continue to receive financial aid, students must meet<br />
Satisfactory Academic Process (SAP) requirements.<br />
Satisfactory Academic Progress includes qualitative and<br />
quantitative measures, as well as maximum time frame<br />
requirements. The information below is a summary <strong>of</strong><br />
key requirements.<br />
QUALITATIVE MEASURE<br />
All students on or applying for financial aid must<br />
complete a minimum number <strong>of</strong> credits, with a quarterly<br />
and cumulative GPA <strong>of</strong> at least 2.0.<br />
QUANTITATIVE MEASURE<br />
Full-time students need to complete at least 12 credits<br />
per quarter, three-quarter time students at least 9, and<br />
half-time students at least 6. Less than half-time students<br />
must complete all credits attempted.<br />
Students who fail to meet the quarterly or cumulative<br />
GPA requirements or who fail to complete the minimum<br />
number <strong>of</strong> credits for their enrollment status for one<br />
quarter may be placed on warning status for the<br />
next quarter and may receive aid; however, certain<br />
limitations apply. Students who fail SAP requirements for<br />
2 consecutive quarters, or fail to complete at least 50%<br />
<strong>of</strong> credits (or all credits for less than half-time students),<br />
for the minimum enrollment level attempted in any one<br />
particular quarter will be placed on suspended status<br />
and will be ineligible for further aid.<br />
www.lwtech.edu/financialaid<br />
REINSTATEMENT<br />
Financial aid may be re-instated after students have<br />
completed, at their own expense, a quarter at the<br />
minimum level they were enrolled in (full-time, half-time,<br />
etc.), during the quarter for which their aid was cancelled<br />
(this does not apply to students who have reached<br />
the maximum time frame limitation). The classes must<br />
be at LWIT and the student must meet all applicable<br />
satisfactory academic progress requirements while<br />
completing the required credits. Awarding <strong>of</strong> financial aid<br />
for reinstated students is on a funds-available basis only.<br />
APPEAL PROCESS<br />
In some cases there may be extraordinary circumstances<br />
(beyond the student’s control), which may be considered<br />
for students whose aid has been suspended. A written<br />
petition, along with supporting documentation, may<br />
be submitted for consideration. Students whose aid is<br />
reinstated through the appeal process will be placed<br />
on probation status in their next quarter <strong>of</strong> attendance.<br />
Awarding <strong>of</strong> financial aid for reinstated students is on<br />
a funds-available basis only. The Financial Aid Office<br />
reserves the right to determine continued eligibility.<br />
Other conditions to maintain satisfactory<br />
academic progress for financial aid may apply.<br />

MAXIMUM TIME FRAME AND PROGRAM LIMITATIONS<br />
Students must complete the program they are pursuing<br />
in no more than 150% (or 125% for the State Need<br />
Grant) measured in attempted credits. For example, if a<br />
student is pursuing an AAS degree which requires 100<br />
credits to complete, the maximum time frame would be<br />
150 attempted credits (125 for the State Need Grant),<br />
regardless <strong>of</strong> whether the credits were funded by financial<br />
aid or not. Students must also meet pace <strong>of</strong> progression<br />
standards, indicating they will complete their program<br />
within the maximum time frame allowed (please see<br />
the complete policy for details). Students may receive<br />
financial aid at LWIT for a maximum <strong>of</strong> 2 programs.<br />

eLEARNING<br />
elearning@lwtech.edu<br />
There are three types <strong>of</strong> eLearning courses. Each type<br />
requires the same amount <strong>of</strong> course work per credit hour,<br />
but there are differences in how much is conducted in the<br />
classroom versus online.<br />
WEB ENHANCED<br />
These classes are conducted with a traditional classroom<br />
schedule, but also utilize online systems for activities<br />
such as posting class announcements and grades or<br />
submitting assignments.<br />
HYBRID, OR BLENDED<br />
These are classes that replace some – but not all –<br />
classroom time with online learning. For instance, a class<br />
that would ordinarily meet five days a week might meet<br />
three days a week and substitute online activities to<br />
replace the other two class sessions.<br />
ONLINE<br />
These are classes conducted 100% online. Students should<br />
expect to spend several hours each week working online<br />
during the quarter, and never meet their instructor face to<br />
face. Online classes include scheduled assignments and<br />
activities and are not typically self-paced.<br />
Below are questions you should consider before enrolling<br />
in an online or hybrid course:<br />
DO YOU HAVE YOUR OWN COMPUTER AND INTERNET<br />
ACCESS AT HOME?<br />
It is very important for students in online or hybrid<br />
classes to have reliable access to a computer with an<br />
internet connection. If you do not have access to these at<br />
home or work, you can use the student computer labs on<br />
campus when they are open and available. For online or<br />
hybrid classes, you may need to spend 2-3 hours at a time<br />
at the computer, several days each week.<br />
HOW ARE YOUR TECHNOLOGY SKILLS?<br />
A student in a fully online class needs to be able to:<br />
use email<br />
use web browsers<br />
use word processing s<strong>of</strong>tware<br />
download files<br />
create attachments<br />
solve problems that may arise by doing tasks such<br />
as clearing browser histories, clearing cookies, and<br />
adjusting browser plugins<br />
If you do not have these skills, you may be better suited<br />
to hybrid and web-enhanced courses, rather than fully<br />
online courses. In addition, we recommend you find the<br />
tutoring, resources or basic classes you need to learn the<br />
above skills to be fully successful in web-enhanced and<br />
hybrid courses.<br />
HOW COMFORTABLE ARE YOU WITH ASKING FOR HELP<br />
WHEN YOU NEED IT?<br />
In an online course, you need to be able to research<br />
answers from the materials the instructor has provided,<br />
as well as communicate via email or discussion posts<br />
with your instructor and fellow students. Students who<br />
are most successful in online and hybrid courses are<br />
comfortable finding help and asking for support when<br />
they need it.<br />
HOW MUCH TIME DO YOU HAVE TO DEVOTE TO AN ONLINE<br />
CLASS, WORKING AT A COMPUTER WITH AN INTERNET<br />
CONNECTION?<br />
In a typical online course, you will spend 10-15 hours<br />
per week online completing coursework. Online classes<br />
have the same work load as face to face classes, without<br />
dedicated classroom time to complete coursework.<br />
Students in online classes need to be able to organize<br />
and plan how they will accomplish these tasks<br />
independently.<br />
DO YOU HAVE THE PERSONALITY TRAITS & SKILLS THAT<br />
CONTRIBUTE TO SUCCESS IN ONLINE LEARNING:<br />
Students who are successful in online courses usually<br />
have the following characteristics:<br />
self-motivated, self-disciplined and organized<br />
effective time management skills<br />
strong reading comprehension skills<br />
strong writing skills<br />
comfortable participating in online class<br />
discussions and providing feedback<br />
interest in and curiosity about new technologies<br />

COOPERATIVE EDUCATION<br />
Cooperative education is a process that draws upon<br />
community resources to expand students’ learning outside<br />
the classroom. It <strong>of</strong>fers students the opportunity to blend<br />
classroom theory with planned, supervised field experience<br />
in areas relating to their career choices. They work with a<br />
cooperative education coordinator, faculty member and<br />
employer to identify and develop specific skills and learning<br />
goals to be gained through the encounter.<br />
Students work on paid, or in some cases, unpaid training<br />
assignments while integrating specific periods <strong>of</strong><br />
on-campus study with employment.<br />
Students may be able to apply their current job<br />
experience, if related to a career choice, toward a<br />
certificate or degree. Cooperative education experience<br />
may substitute for some coursework to meet personal<br />
needs. For more information on Cooperative Education,<br />
students should contact their faculty adviser.<br />

CREDITS AND CREDIT LOAD<br />
The academic year is divided into three quarters <strong>of</strong><br />
approximately eleven weeks each, while also running<br />
an eight-week summer quarter (the length <strong>of</strong> individual<br />
courses may differ). In order to complete certificate<br />
or degree requirements in the prescribed number <strong>of</strong><br />
quarters, a suggested course load per quarter will be<br />
approximately 15 to 20 credits. A lecture class which<br />
meets five hours per week for one quarter will yield five<br />
quarter credits. Lab courses require ten hours <strong>of</strong> class<br />
time per week for five credits. Special permission is<br />
needed to carry more than 25 credits.<br />
FULL- AND PART-TIME STUDENT STATUS<br />
Students enrolled in 12 or more credits are considered<br />
full-time. Some programs may require higher quarterly<br />
credit loads to complete requirements in a specified time<br />
period. Some external agencies may use different credit<br />
values to calculate full-time status.<br />
Students registered for fewer than full-time credits as<br />
defined above are considered part-time.<br />
NOTE: For financial aid purposes, the financial aid <strong>of</strong>fice<br />
should be consulted for definitions <strong>of</strong> three-quarter<br />
time, half-time, and less than half-time since the level <strong>of</strong><br />
enrollment affects aid eligibility.<br />
GRADUATION<br />
The student is responsible for working with his or her<br />
adviser to meet all degree or certificate requirements.<br />
Automated degree checks are available for various<br />
academic programs and time periods through online<br />
services on the campus website.<br />
To receive a preliminary evaluation before the final<br />
quarter starts, students must apply to graduate by the<br />
second week <strong>of</strong> the preceding quarter. Students should<br />
apply to graduate by the fourth week <strong>of</strong> the preceding<br />
quarter. Applications received after that may be deferred<br />
to a future quarter.<br />
Commencement is held yearly in June. Students who<br />
complete a program during the preceding summer, fall,<br />
winter and spring quarters, or the following summer,<br />
are invited to participate.<br />
Graduation is recorded on student transcripts two-to-four<br />
weeks after the end <strong>of</strong> the student’s final quarter.<br />
Diplomas are sent to students four to six weeks after the<br />
end <strong>of</strong> the final quarter.<br />
Some programs <strong>of</strong>fer other special awards that are not<br />
posted to the transcript.<br />
In accordance with state law, students are expected to<br />
complete their degree and certificate programs within<br />
a suitable length <strong>of</strong> time or number <strong>of</strong> credits. See<br />
Enrollment Services or the student handbook for details.<br />
GRADING<br />
<strong>Lake</strong> <strong>Washington</strong> <strong>Institute</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Technology</strong> uses a numeric<br />
grading system for most courses. Instructors may report<br />
grades from 4.0 to 0.7 in 0.1 increments and the grade <strong>of</strong><br />
0.0. Grades in the range <strong>of</strong> 0.6 to 0.1 are not assigned. A<br />
grade <strong>of</strong> 0.7 earns credits; however, a minimum grade <strong>of</strong><br />
2.0 is required for a number <strong>of</strong> purposes including technical<br />
courses, academic core requirements, progression in a<br />
sequence <strong>of</strong> classes, to satisfy a prerequisite, and graduation<br />
requirements. Numerical grades may be considered<br />
equivalent to letter grades as follows:<br />
Points Letter<br />
4.0 A Excellent performance<br />
3.9-3.7 A-<br />
3.6-3.3 B+<br />
3.2-3.0 B Above-average performance<br />
2.9-2.7 B-<br />
2.6-2.3 C+<br />
2.2-2.0 C Average performance<br />
1.9-1.7 C-<br />
1.6-1.3 D+<br />
1.2-1.0 D Minimum performance<br />
0.9-0.7 D-<br />
0.6-0.0 F Unsatisfactory performance<br />
I – INCOMPLETE<br />
An incomplete grade may be given if the student is doing<br />
passing work, is unable to complete the requirements<br />
<strong>of</strong> the course during the quarter and can complete the<br />
requirements within a contracted period <strong>of</strong> time. The student<br />
does not reregister for the course in a later quarter to remove<br />
the incomplete within the contracted period <strong>of</strong> time.<br />

When an I (Incomplete) grade is given by an instructor,<br />
a contract is filed with Enrollment Services stating the<br />
work necessary to remove the Incomplete, a date for<br />
completion, and the grade earned if not completed.<br />
Incomplete coursework must be completed by the<br />
required date as established by the instructor (this<br />
date may be no later than the end <strong>of</strong> the subsequent<br />
quarter <strong>of</strong> enrollment). At the time <strong>of</strong> graduation, the<br />
Incomplete will be changed to a 0.0 or to the grade<br />
assigned on the contract.<br />
N – AUDIT<br />
Audit means the student registered on a space-available<br />
basis to attend the class and to listen, but not do graded<br />
work. The N grade does not earn credit and does not<br />
affect the GPA. The audit grade option must be approved<br />
by the instructor and submitted to Enrollment Services<br />
by the eighth week <strong>of</strong> the quarter.<br />
NG – NO GRADE<br />
NG means the course is “not graded” for any student<br />
taking the course. This applies, for example, to some<br />
non-credit courses. It would not appear on graded, credit<br />
courses. NG does not affect the GPA and does not earn<br />
credits. It does not indicate whether a student attended,<br />
just that the student enrolled.<br />
R – REPEATING A COURSE<br />
The qualifier R on a transcript means a course has been<br />
repeated, and is excluded from credits and grade point<br />
average. A student may repeat any course taken at LWIT<br />
in which a grade <strong>of</strong> less than 2.0 or a U was earned.<br />
All grades will still appear on the transcript whether<br />
repeated or not. If the most recent grade is lower than<br />
the earlier grade, the student may request the registrar to<br />
count just the higher grade in the GPA.<br />
S/U – SATISFACTORY/UNSATISFACTORY<br />
S/U grading is used for work experience, clinical, and skill<br />
development courses. The S indicates a satisfactory level<br />
<strong>of</strong> performance by the student. By assigning an S grade,<br />
the instructor certifies a performance level <strong>of</strong> at least a<br />
2.0 or higher. Credit is earned but the S does not affect<br />
the GPA calculation. A U grade is assigned when the level<br />
<strong>of</strong> performance is below 2.0. A U grade does not earn<br />
credit and does not affect the GPA.<br />
W – WITHDRAWAL<br />
A student may <strong>of</strong>ficially withdraw from any course<br />
through the eighth week <strong>of</strong> the quarter (or the equivalent<br />
for a short course or courses with irregular start or end<br />
dates) by completing a withdrawal form and submitting<br />
it to Enrollment Services. Official withdrawals occurring<br />
after the tenth instructional day <strong>of</strong> the quarter are<br />
posted with a W on the student’s permanent transcript.<br />
Withdrawals do not count in the GPA calculations and<br />
cannot be assigned by faculty in the grading process.<br />
Y – IN PROGRESS<br />
A Y grade is given to students who are doing passing<br />
coursework in basic skill classes (ABE, ESL, etc.) but need<br />
additional instruction and time to complete course<br />
requirements. Students are required to re-register for the<br />
course and pay all tuition and any other charges. The Y<br />
remains on the transcript for the quarter assigned, while<br />
the final grade will be posted to the quarter in which the<br />
student re-enrolled in the course. The Y grade earns no<br />
credit and does not affect the GPA.<br />
Z – UNOFFICIAL WITHDRAWAL<br />
Students who attend briefly, rarely, or not at all, and who<br />
fail to withdraw from a course with a W grade, may be<br />
assigned a grade <strong>of</strong> Z if appropriate in the judgment <strong>of</strong> an<br />
administrator. The Z grade does not earn credit and does<br />
not count in the GPA calculation.<br />
* (ASTERISK)<br />
This symbol (asterisk) means the grade has not been<br />
assigned yet. The student should consult with his or her<br />
instructor. This grade does not affect the GPA and does not<br />
earn credits. Note however that a * grade could prevent<br />
a student from receiving honors, impede financial aid<br />
eligibility, block graduation, or result in a student being<br />
considered in academic difficulty. It is important that all<br />
enrolled courses be assigned valid grades.<br />

ACADEMIC GRADE FORGIVENESS POLICY<br />
In order to compensate for the effects <strong>of</strong> circumstances<br />
in a student’s past that may have negatively affected his<br />
or her GPA, LWIT <strong>of</strong>fers a grade forgiveness policy. This<br />
procedure can be accomplished through an appeal filed<br />
with the registrar. The following criteria must be met to<br />
be eligible for such an appeal:<br />
1. Grades must be three or more years old.<br />
2. Only quarters including credits graded below a 2.0<br />
may be forgiven.<br />
3. Grade forgiveness can include one or several quarters<br />
from a prior census point back, as requested by<br />
the student.<br />
4. The student must demonstrate a 2.0 GPA in all decimal<br />
graded courses taken after the last date <strong>of</strong> the period<br />
for which a student is requesting forgiveness.<br />
All courses in a given quarter are removed from the<br />
GPA but remain on the student’s transcript. This appeal<br />
can be requested by turning in a letter <strong>of</strong> appeal to the<br />
registrar in Enrollment Services. A determination will<br />
be made whether grade forgiveness is appropriate on a<br />
case-by-case basis.<br />
NOTE: Grade forgiveness can only be granted once.<br />
Grades previously forgiven will not be reinstated. Also if<br />
a student is transferring to another college, that college<br />
may not recognize the grade forgiveness previously<br />
granted at <strong>Lake</strong> <strong>Washington</strong> <strong>Institute</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Technology</strong>.<br />
GRADE APPEALS<br />
Students are responsible for maintaining standards <strong>of</strong><br />
academic progress and following course procedures<br />
established by instructors. The purpose <strong>of</strong> allowing a<br />
grade appeal is to protect students from prejudiced,<br />
arbitrary, or capricious academic evaluation. Students<br />
are responsible for following the grade appeal process<br />
as described in the current LWIT Student Handbook<br />
available in any student services <strong>of</strong>fice.<br />
GRADE POINT AVERAGE (GPA)<br />
The grade point average indicates the general<br />
achievement <strong>of</strong> the student. The quarterly GPA includes<br />
only classes for that specific quarter; the cumulative GPA<br />
includes all classes which comprise the student’s academic<br />
history at LWIT. GPA is calculated by dividing the grade<br />
points by the number <strong>of</strong> credits <strong>of</strong> the courses for which<br />
the student was awarded a decimal grade. Grade points<br />
are calculated by multiplying the number <strong>of</strong> credits by the<br />
numeric value <strong>of</strong> the grade for each course. The calculation<br />
does not include courses for which the student was<br />
awarded Z, Y, N, W, I, S, U, or other non-decimal grades.<br />
Example:<br />
Course Credits Grade<br />
ENGL 100 5 3.7<br />
ABED 040 5 S<br />
PSYC& 100 5 4.0<br />
5 credits x 3.7 = 18.5 grade points.<br />
5 credits x 4.0 = 20 grade points.<br />
Total grade points: 18.5 + 20 = 38.5.<br />
Total credits taken for a decimal grade: 5 + 5 = 10.<br />
GPA: 38.5 grade points divided by 10 credits = 3.85.<br />
The GPA is calculated for each quarter and also for all<br />
quarters combined, which is referred to as a cumulative<br />
GPA. Contact Enrollment Services if you have questions<br />
about your GPA.<br />
GRADE CHANGES<br />
Grades may be changed by instructors only in cases <strong>of</strong><br />
clerical errors or subsequent completion <strong>of</strong> coursework.<br />
It is the student’s responsibility to initiate a grade<br />
change with the instructor. A grade change form must<br />
be completed, signed by the instructor, and submitted<br />
to Enrollment Services before a grade change becomes<br />
<strong>of</strong>ficial. Students have 60 days from the end <strong>of</strong> the<br />
quarter to request a grade change (deadlines for<br />
Incomplete grades differ).<br />
