GRADING POLICY:
The school applies the following grading system for all programs offered at the American School of Technology:
Official reports (student evaluation) of student grades are issued at the completion of each term of training. Quizzes, worksheets and other exercises may be used during the term to further evaluate progress. Student evaluation is based upon written tests and quizzes, practical assignments and projects, methodology, overall skills, and equipment usage, and personal abilities. Minimum standards for successful completion of a program require that a student achieve a CGPA of 2.0 (“C” Average) or higher to graduate.

Repeating a Course:
A student must repeat a required course in which an “F” was earned. The original and repeated course grades are recorded on the academic record and included in the calculation of credit hours attempted for maximum time frame. The grade of the last repeat becomes the final grade and will replace all other grades for that course in the CGPA calculation.
Letter grades or academic marks will appear for each course/term of training that a student starts. In the case of repeated courses, the course repeated will be indicated by an “R” on the academic record. Scheduling of repeated courses will be at the school’s discretion.
