Grade Warning SystemsThe <strong>University</strong> has devised two gradewarningsystems to help contribute to asuccessful educ<strong>at</strong>ional experience for students,particularly those who are havinginitial difficulties adjusting to the demands<strong>of</strong> their university experience.The early warning system is under-takenduring the fourth week <strong>of</strong> class for all 100-level and 200-level courses. This systemcomplements the mid-term warning systemwhich is undertaken during the eighthweek for all courses.Through these systems, students arealerted in a timely fashion so as to makeadjustments before their academic re-cordsare affected.Grade Point AverageLetter grades are assigned the followingnumerical values:A = 4.00 C = 2.00A- = 3.67 C- = 1.67B+ = 3.33 D+ = 1.33B = 3.00 D = 1.00B- = 2.67 D- = 0.67C+ = 2.33 F = 0.00a c a d e m i c i n f o r m a t i o nRegistr<strong>at</strong>ioncontinuedTo find the quality points earned in acourse, multiply the numerical value <strong>of</strong> thecourse grade by the number <strong>of</strong> credithours earned in each course. Th<strong>at</strong> is, agrade <strong>of</strong> B in a 3-semester hour coursewould be worth 3 x 3 or 9 quality points.To find the quality point average, total allthe quality points earned and divide thesum by the total number <strong>of</strong> graded credithours. Grades received for transfer creditsdo not earn quality points. Incompletesare not calcul<strong>at</strong>ed in the GPA until a gradeis assigned for the course.Grade ReportsA student’s academic performance isconfidential inform<strong>at</strong>ion and written permissionfrom the student is required to releaseinform<strong>at</strong>ion to individuals outsidethe administr<strong>at</strong>ive or academic community<strong>of</strong> UMPI.Considerable care is taken to ensure th<strong>at</strong>all course registr<strong>at</strong>ion and grade inform<strong>at</strong>ionentered on a student’s permanentrecord is accur<strong>at</strong>e. Records are assumed tobe correct if a student does not report errorsto the Office <strong>of</strong> Student Records priorto the beginning <strong>of</strong> final examin<strong>at</strong>ions <strong>of</strong>the following semester, earlier if possible.TranscriptsThe valid document<strong>at</strong>ion <strong>of</strong> academicwork and student st<strong>at</strong>us is an <strong>of</strong>ficial transcript<strong>of</strong> the academic record, stampedwith the sign<strong>at</strong>ure <strong>of</strong> the Director <strong>of</strong> StudentRecords and embossed with the seal<strong>of</strong> the <strong>University</strong>.

An evalu<strong>at</strong>ion <strong>of</strong> transfer credit will be prepared by the TransferOfficer for each accepted transfer student, and will be availablein the student’s <strong>Maine</strong>Street Student Center. The transfer studentshould meet with an academic advisor <strong>at</strong> the receiving university toreview how the transfer credit will be applied toward the student’sdegree program. Transfer evalu<strong>at</strong>ions will be prepared based on thefollowing principles:a) Within the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Maine</strong> System...Undergradu<strong>at</strong>e coursescompleted with a C- or higher, including P grades, will transferfrom one UMS university to another. Grades will be recorded onthe student’s transcript but not computed into the cumul<strong>at</strong>iveGPA.b) Outside the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Maine</strong> System...Credit earned with aC- or higher in courses from regionally accredited colleges/universitiesoutside the UMS will be considered for transfer. Pass-failcourses taken outside the UMS must have “pass” defined as a C- orhigher in order to transfer.c) Generally, course grades do not transfer from one college/universityto another. Semester and cumul<strong>at</strong>ive GPA’s reflect onlythose courses taken <strong>at</strong> the home university. Students in cooper<strong>at</strong>ivedegree programs should inquire about any exceptions th<strong>at</strong> mayapply.d) <strong>Course</strong>work defined as developmental by the <strong>University</strong> towhich the student is transferring will not be awarded degree credit.Developmental courses are considered prepar<strong>at</strong>ory to college-levelwork, and will not count towards a degree.e) <strong>Course</strong>s from colleges and universities outside the UnitedSt<strong>at</strong>es will be accepted for transfer consistent with established universitypolicies and practices.3. Credit may be awarded for high school Advanced Placement(AP) exams, College Level Examin<strong>at</strong>ion Program (CLEP) exams, orcollege-level knowledge gained through life experience (e.g., priorlearning, such as military or other training) when valid<strong>at</strong>ed throughthe approved campus processes.4.

g e n e r a l e d u c a t i o nGeneral Educ<strong>at</strong>ion CurriculumPhilosophy <strong>of</strong> the General Educ<strong>at</strong>ion CurriculumThe <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Maine</strong> <strong>at</strong> <strong>Presque</strong> <strong>Isle</strong> faculty has developedthe following general educ<strong>at</strong>ion curriculum in accordance withthe goals <strong>of</strong> the <strong>University</strong>: (1) to provide students with the competenciesnecessary for academic and pr<strong>of</strong>essional success; (2) toexpose students to multiple methods <strong>of</strong> g<strong>at</strong>hering and employingknowledge in order to facilit<strong>at</strong>e long-term learning not limited toa single discipline; (3) to prepare students to think critically andformul<strong>at</strong>e effective responses to a broader range <strong>of</strong> texts, media,circumstances, and institutions, so th<strong>at</strong> they may become activeand effective participants in communities both local and global.By providing a found<strong>at</strong>ion <strong>of</strong> inform<strong>at</strong>ion and skills, the GeneralEduc<strong>at</strong>ion Curriculum (GEC) insures th<strong>at</strong> the gradu<strong>at</strong>e notonly has knowledge <strong>of</strong> a major field but also the flexibility tothink critically and argue persuasively on a range <strong>of</strong> issues relevantto personal and pr<strong>of</strong>essional life. Critical and conceptual thinking,sensitivity to the multiplicities <strong>of</strong> human experience, and acquisition<strong>of</strong> technical skills are pervasive throughout theeduc<strong>at</strong>ional experience <strong>at</strong> the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Maine</strong> <strong>at</strong> <strong>Presque</strong> <strong>Isle</strong>.The GEC, then, is not simply a collection <strong>of</strong> courses representingdifferent disciplines but r<strong>at</strong>her a set <strong>of</strong> courses with common,interrel<strong>at</strong>ed aims. The GEC synthesizes disciplines toprovide a total university experience, producing a liberally educ<strong>at</strong>edgradu<strong>at</strong>e, regardless <strong>of</strong> major.The structural framework <strong>of</strong> the GEC addresses several concepts;some represent a body <strong>of</strong> knowledge, some skills, and somean intellectual or ethical perspective.The GEC is divided into two inter-connected sections: Found<strong>at</strong>ions<strong>of</strong> Knowledge and Approaches to Learning. In the Found<strong>at</strong>ionssection, students explore concepts <strong>of</strong> Literacy,Multicultural Experiences, and Quantit<strong>at</strong>ive Decision Making.This knowledge is applied in the Approaches c<strong>at</strong>egories, in which<strong>Course</strong> Design<strong>at</strong>orsstudents explore Physical and Life Sciences, the Social Sciences,and Humanities and the Fine Arts.Exemption from GECStudents entering the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Maine</strong> <strong>at</strong> <strong>Presque</strong> <strong>Isle</strong> as degreeseekers who have a completed baccalaure<strong>at</strong>e degree from a regionallyaccredited institution will receive transfer credit for theirprevious degree work and will be exempt from meeting the specificrequirements <strong>of</strong> the GEC. This does not exempt them fromprogram requirements; it does exempt them from PlacementTesting. Advisors should counsel exempted students to takecourses to fill any deficiencies in their general educ<strong>at</strong>ion relevantto their career or future citizenship.First Year SeminarFYS 100, the First Year Seminar course, is required <strong>of</strong> all studentsm<strong>at</strong>ricul<strong>at</strong>ing with fewer than12 college credits, and mustbe completed in the student’s first semester.GEC Requirements for Specific ProgramsPlease refer to the academic program for specific course requirementsor recommend<strong>at</strong>ions regarding the core GEC.
