Successful Completion of a Class

Successful completion of a class is a letter grade of A, B, C, D, S. Unsuccessful completion of a class is defined as Failure (F), Withdrawal (W), Incomplete (I), or Unsatisfactory (U).  Remedial classes are graded as: passing "S" for satisfactory or "U" unsatisfactory (which is considered not completing the course work).  The completion rate requirement applies to remedial classes. Note that remedial coursework does not calculate into a GPA. All classes that are repeated (including grade exclusions) are counted in the Quantitative (Pace) Measure.

Students who have attended other post-secondary institutions are required to have an official grade transcript from these schools on file in the DACC Records office. Transfer credit that is evaluated to apply towards their program of study at DACC will be included in the total credit hours attempted and earned as part of the quantitative measure (the Pace) of maximum time frame allowance.
