All School of Health Professions programs for which the university serves as the school of record will use the following grading scale for those courses in which grades affect the Grade Point Average (GPA). Mathematical rules for rounding to the nearest whole number based on two decimal places apply. For example, a final grade of 93.45 would round to a 94 (A). A final grade of 93.44 would round to a 93 (A-).
