Course of 4 Credits or Less

This policy applies to students who took PATH500 prior to January 2024

  1. Continue on Monitored Academic Status (MAS)

Make-up Examinations are examinations offered to students who have failed a course of 4 credits or less. Currently this applies to PATH500. Term 5 students who fail PATH500 will be issued an “EP” (exam pending) status.

Students who have failed only PATH500 will not be required to repeat the course. They must take the makeup exam at the next available offering. Students who are required to repeat and pass BPM502, must do so prior to taking the BSFCR make up exam at the next available offering. Once students pass the BSFCR make up exam, the PATH500 grade will be resolved and they will be issued a “P” in place of the “EP”.

As long as students are within timeline standards for academic progress, they are permitted to take a makeup exam at each offering until they earn a passing score.

Note: Students who have failed both PCM 501 and PATH 500 will repeat both courses and re-take all required course assignments and assessments.

 

  1. Recommendation for Dismissal

If a student has not successfully passed the make-up exam for the failed course within timeline standards for academic progress, the student will be recommended for dismissal with an opportunity to appeal to the CAPPS.
