SOC 1001B 3.00 x 4 =12.00
Sums 16 45.70 GPA = Sum of Products / Sum of Credits = 57.00 / 16 = 3.56 Grades in Off-Campus Programs Grades for credits earned at Lincoln must be assigned by a member of the Lincoln faculty. When a student earns credit for an internship or other off-campus work, the responsible faculty member will receive the report or recommendation from the person supervising the work and then assign a grade. These courses are generally offered on a pass/fail basis only. Transfer Credits in Undergraduate Programs Credits accepted in transfer from other institutions that were completed prior to a student's initial enrollment in Lincoln University is not included in the computation of the cumulative grade point average. Such credits are, however, included in the determination of a student's (1) grade level, and (2) cumulative attempted credits but only for the purpose of selecting the GPA minimum in the definition of satisfactory academic progress. Transfer credits accepted from other institutions that received prior approval, as a repeat for a course taken at Lincoln will be included in the computation of the student's Lincoln University cumulative grade point average, earned, and attempted credits. Prior approval as a repeat will not be granted for any course in which a grade of “C” or better was earned. Lincoln University students are permitted a maximum of twelve (12) credit hours taken as “online” (distance learning) from other accredited institutions. These credits will be applied to the 120-124 needed for graduation provided all other existing regulations are fulfilled, e.g., earned a final grade of C or higher. Credits from other institutions that: (1) are taken after a student's initial enrollment at Lincoln, and (2) do not constitute a repeat of courses taken at Lincoln, may be accepted in transfer, but a maximum of 12 credits of a C or better and their associated quality points may be included in a student's Lincoln University cumulative grade point average. Transfer Credits in Graduate Programs A maximum of six credits taken at other institutions may be used in meeting the requirements of the other graduate degrees. The courses must have been taken no more than five years prior to the student’s matriculation in the degree program. All transfer courses must have a grade of “B” or better and be approved by the academic department.
