Course Grades and Credits
  1. The Faculty of Science constitutes the examining body for all courses. After the results have been considered they will be posted by the Registrar on Quest. Course attributes, definitions, and grades currently used can be found under Grades.
  2. A non-numeric grade will be assigned to a numerically graded course in some circumstances.
  3. To obtain credit for a course, students must normally obtain a minimum grade of 50. The minimum grade is higher than 50 in certain courses (e.g., OPTOM and PHARM courses). Some courses have a passing grade of 50 but a higher grade is required to meet the requisites for a subsequent course.
  4. Students who do not complete a portion of a course for health or other documented circumstances should consult their course outline, review Faculty information and instructions regarding accommodations, and refer to Assignments, Tests, and Final Exams.
