Academic Advisement Servicemembers Opportunity Colleges UMUC participates in the Servicemembers Opportunity Colleges’ Degree Programs, SOCED, and SOC Degree Builder programs. For Army, Navy, Coast Guard, and Marine personnel at the certificate and associate-degree level, they are SOCAD-2, SOCNAV-2, SOCCOAST-2, and SOCMAR-2. For Army, Navy, Coast Guard, and Marine personnel at the baccalaureate level, they are SOCAD-4, SOCNAV-4, SOCCOAST-4, SOCMAR-4. SOC agreements will be issued to students after they have: • Paid the Application Fee. • Completed at least six semester hours of UMUC coursework. • Requested an Official Evaluation. The minimum number of semester hours needed with UMUC- Europe to earn a UMUC degree is 15 s.h. for the associate and 30 s.h. for the baccalaureate. To earn either degree, students must maintain a grade point average of 2.0 (C) or better in UMUC courses and satisfy minimum UMUC degree requirements. Family members may also apply for SOC agreements. UMUC participates in the SOCED program which is designed to help members of the military community prepare for eventual careers in secondary-level teaching and in the SOC Degree Builder program which helps servicemembers in various MOS/NER career paths plot their degree progress. 18 For More Information, Contact University of Maryland University College Office of Evaluations Unit 29216 APO AE 09102 DSN: 370-6762 CIV: +49-(0)6221-378347 Fax: +49-(0)6221-302017 E-mail: edevals@ed.umuc.edu 2004-2005 Undergraduate Catalog
Grades and Records Grading System The following symbols are used by UMUC-Europe: Grade/Mark Interpretation Quality Points A Outstanding scholarship 4 B Good scholarship 3 C Satisfactory scholarship 2 D Marginal performance 1 Fa Academic failure 0 Fn Failure for nonattendance 0 G Grade under review 0 S Satisfactory (C or higher) 0 Au Audit 0 I Incomplete 0 R Repeated course 0 W Withdrawal 0 Satisfactory: The Grade of S The grade of S is used when a satisfactory (S)/marginal (D)/ failure (F) grading system applies. This grade is used to denote satisfactory progress in an experiential setting or practicum, such as EXCL 301, and is defined as C or higher. Although the grade of S confers credit and appears on the permanent record, courses graded S are not used in determining grade point average. Marginal Performance: The Grade of D The grade of D is the minimum passing grade and denotes borderline understanding of the subject. Only a limited amount of coursework in which the grade of D has been earned can be applied toward a degree. For additional information, students should refer to specific certificate and degree requirements in this Catalog. Most regionally accredited colleges and universities will not accept transfer courses in which a D has been earned. Failure: The Grade of Fa or Fn The grade of F means a failure to satisfy the minimum requirements of a course. The grade of F may be given for academic failure or for nonattendance. A student who fails to do passing work in a course receives an Fa (academic). The grade of Fn means a failure in the course because the student has not attended class sessions or participated in course assignments and activities. It is assigned when the student ceases to attend class but has not officially withdrawn. The military services require that students receiving tuition assistance reimburse the government if they receive the grade of Fa or Fn. Grade under Review: The Mark of G The mark of G is an exceptional and temporary administrative mark given only when the final grade in the course is under review. It is not the same as a mark of Incomplete. Grades and Records Incomplete: The Mark of I The mark of I (incomplete) is an exceptional mark given only to students whose work in a course has been satisfactory but who for reasons beyond their control have been unable to complete all the requirements of a course. The following criteria must be met: • The student must have completed at least 60 percent of the work in the course with a grade of C or better. • The mark of I must be requested before the end of the course. The procedure for awarding the mark of I is as follows: • The student must ask the faculty member for a mark of I. (Faculty members cannot award a mark of I on their own initiative.) • The faculty member decides whether to grant the request. • The faculty member sets a date (no more than 4 months after submitting the original grade) for completion of the remaining requirements of the course. • The faculty member and the student together agree on the remaining requirements of the course and the deadline for submitting the work. • The student is responsible for completing the work. • After the work is completed, the faculty member submits a grade change to replace the mark of I on the student’s record with a grade. If the mark of I is not made up within 4 months or by the agreedupon deadline, the I is changed to an F. Students should be aware that a mark of I in their final semester may delay graduation. The mark of I cannot be removed by means of credit by examination, nor can it be replaced by a mark of W (defined below). Students who elect to repeat an incomplete course must register again for the course, pay all applicable fees, and repeat the course. For purposes of academic retention, the course grade is counted as an F. The mark of I is not used in determining grade point averages. Withdrawal: The Mark of W When a student officially withdraws, a W is assigned. The W can be posted only when it is documented by an Application for Withdrawal. (See the Enrollment section of this Catalog for filing instructions.) For purposes of academic retention, the mark of W is counted as attempted hours. It is not used in determining grade point averages. Audit: Au When a student audits a course, an Au is assigned. Any course may be audited. Students seeking neither credit nor grades may register to audit a course provided they meet current admissions standards. Auditors pay the same fees as those taking the course(s) for credit. Once a class has begun, a student cannot change registration status from audit to credit or from credit to audit. 2004-2005 Undergraduate Catalog 19
