The student`s scholastic standing is determined by his or her cumulative grade-point average and professional grade-point average. These averages may be calculated as an overall average or a term average. See the University Policies and Procedures section for information on the computation of the cumulative grade-point average and other grading regulations.
The cumulative grade-point average includes all courses completed at Rutgers used to satisfy the degree requirements in the pharmacy program. The professional grade-point average includes all courses completed at Rutgers with the subject codes 158, and 715 through 725.
When students earn a grade of D or F in a course, the course, with permission, may be repeated; however, both grades will be included in the student`s averages and both remain on the student`s transcript. Grades received at another institution are not included in either the cumulative or the professional grade-point averages. If a student is authorized to repeat a course at another institution, the grade and credits originally earned in the course at Rutgers remain part of the student`s transcript.
