Grading System
For each course, the marks awarded for semester final exams, midterm exams, term papers/home test will be summed up and converted into grades under a 4-point grading scale. Letter grades will be used to assess the performance of a student. Grades A+, A, A-, B+, B, B-, C+, C and D will represent pass and grade F will denote fail. The numerically equivalent grades for calculating CGPA are as follows:
| Marks range | Letter Grades | Explanation | Grade Points |
|---|---|---|---|
| 80% or above | A+ | Excellent | 4.00 |
| 75% to < 80% | A | 3.75 | |
| 70% to < 75% | A- | 3.50 | |
| 65% to < 70% | B+ | Very Good | 3.25 |
| 60% to < 65% | B | 3.00 | |
| 55% to < 60% | B- | 2.75 | |
| 50% to < 55% | C+ | Good | 2.50 |
| 45% to < 50% | C | 2.25 | |
| 40% to < 45% | D | Pass | 2.00 |
| Less than 40% | F | Fail | 0.00 |
| ………. | I | ………. | Incomplete |
| ………. | W | ………. | Withdrawn |
Requirements for Degree
To obtain both Bachelor and Masters Degrees, a student should require a minimum CGPA-2 considering all the grade points earned in the total number of courses, including the grade of improvement, if any. A carry-over system will be in place, meaning that if a student fails to achieve the required CGPA for promotion, they will be allowed to continue in the next semester, but they will clear their deficit by seating for a separate examination within 45 days of the publication of the result with the permission of the academic committee of the department. A student failing to clear up the annual university or department dues of the year of study will not be promoted to the next semester.
A student earning ‘F’ grade in any course will be allowed to improve the grade twice/two times only with the immediate following batches and they will be allowed to improve the grades in course final examinations, including mid-semester exams, once only with the immediate next batch. A student carrying grade ‘F’ in any course will not be awarded a degree unless they improve it by appearing at the semester final exams with the next batch.
