<li style="margin-bottom:15px;">The student must maintain a cumulative grade point average on exams of '''78%''' in order to progress. The weighted average of all tests and examinations will be calculated first. If the average of test and exam grades is less than '''78%''', that will be the course grade. If this score is greater than or equal to '''78%''', then other evaluation scores will be added and the resulting average must be '''78%''' or greater in order to pass | <li style="margin-bottom:15px;">The student must maintain, in required courses, a cumulative grade point average on exams of '''78.0%''' in order to progress. The weighted average of all tests and examinations will be calculated first. If the average of test and exam grades is less than '''78.0%''', that will be the course grade. If this score is greater than or equal to '''78.0%''', then other evaluation scores will be added and the resulting average must be '''78.0%''' or greater in order to pass. Only the final course score will be subject to mathematical rounding to the nearest whole number.</li> | ||
<li style="margin-bottom:15px;">The following will be included in the '''test/exam''' portion of the grade in required courses. Note: this portion of each student’s grade must be 78.0% or higher without rounding in order to pass the course. This portion of the grade is to be based on work completed by the individual student. Any exam-related group work score would be added to the final grade after the student has achieved a 78.0% exam average without rounding on individual exam performance.<br /><br /> | |||
<li style="margin-bottom:15px;"> | Test/exams are defined as 50 or more questions that evaluate the application of content from this course and previous coursework to patient situations. Each didactic course will give a minimum of 2 tests/exams. <br /><br /> | ||
--> | If a student misses the scheduled test/exam, the faculty reserves the right to prepare a test in an alternate form such as essay, short answer and multiple choice. The test/exam should be worth the same number of points as the original. The date and time will be determined by the course coordinator/instructor. <br /><br /> | ||
'''Additional assignments''', as offered by each individual campus, will ''be included in the final grade once the student has met the 78.0% test average requirement''. Examples of these assignments include but are not limited to:<br /> | |||
-Quizzes <br /> | |||
-Individual readiness assurance test (IRAT)/Group readiness assurance test (GRAT) <br /> | |||
-participation <br /> | |||
-presentations <br /> | |||
-papers <br /> | |||
-Assessment technologies institute (ATI) proctored assessments<br /><br /> | |||
These activities evaluate the student’s ability to be prepared for class and to apply the concepts in a variety of settings.</li> | |||

A student who receives a grade of “Fail” or “F” in a required non-nursing or required nursing course may not continue into any nursing course which has as a prerequisite the course in which the non-passing grade was received.</li> | <li style="margin-bottom:15px;">In a clinical course, the student must receive a grade of “Pass” or “P” in pre-requisite, transferred or required courses in the nursing major in order to progress to the next level.

<li style="margin-bottom:15px;">A student in the Accelerated BSN Program may be allowed to progress in the traditional BSN program after a course failure in the accelerated program. An individualized updated plan of study would identify the student’s updated timeline and courses to complete. This student would remain on the same campus as the campus of admission. A request to move to another UNMC College of Nursing campus could be offered as space is available.</li> | |||
