B.S. Generic/Pre-licensure (BS-G) Progression1. Progression within a course, from course to course and in class level (freshman,sophomore, junior, and senior) is governed by the Student Affairs Committee regulationsas stated in this section. Students are responsible to complete all pre-major and nursingcourses at the designed class level before going on to the next class level.2. Faculty may ask the Student Affairs Committee to review a student’s record on the basisof classroom and/or clinical performance, professionalism, attendance or tardiness. Thecommittee may choose to put the student on probation, make conditional requirements,and/or dismiss the student. The Chairperson of the Student Affairs Committee will give aletter to the student stating the action of the committee. Appeal by the student is made tothe Assistant Dean for Student Affairs.3. A minimum cumulative grade point average of 2.0 (on a 4.0 scale) must be maintainedthroughout the program.4. A student must achieve at least a "C" in Writing I, Writing II and Quantitative Reasoningcourses. A"C-" in a non-nursing course (i.e. pre-nursing science courses and generaleducation courses) must be offset by a higher grade to maintain a grade point average of2.0 each quarter. A student receiving a grade below "C-" in any course is considered tohave failed the course and must repeat that course before progressing to the next level.5. A grade of “C-” or better (at least 70%) must be achieved in all general education andpre-major science courses. A student receiving a grade below a “C-” in any such courseis considered to have failed the course and then must repeat that course beforeprogressing to the next level.6. For progression within the BS-G program, clinical theory and clinical practice coursesare considered to be linked. Students must satisfactorily pass both theory andcorresponding clinical courses with a “C” (74% or better) to pass the set of courses andprogress to the next set of theory and clinical courses. If a student does not pass (receivesa grade of “C-” or below, or a “Fail”) either a theory or the corresponding clinical course,the student will be allowed to drop the linked course, if currently passing, and will berequired to repeat both courses during the next academic year. 17. Some courses contain more than one clinical or theory rotation within the course, such asMaternity, Medical-Surgical, Gerontology and/or Pediatrics. A student must pass eachrotation within a course on the basis of satisfactory test scores of at least 74% (“C” or“Pass”) or satisfactory achievement of the clinical objectives to receive a passing grade inthe course during the next academic year. 11 Students admitted to the School of Nursing after 9/1/2007 will be offered these courses on a Pass/Failbasis only. Students admitted prior to 9/1/2007 must take these courses for a letter grade158
