Faculty Regulations

173.2 Academic Standing and Graduation

(1)

Passing Grade: Under normal circumstances, each student must obtain a grade of no less than D+ in every course during the student's program of study.

(2)

Failure in Fieldwork or Clinical Work:

a.

A student must successfully complete each fieldwork/clinical course to graduate from the program. A student may fail only one fieldwork/clinical course during the student's program. If a student fails a fieldwork/clinical course, that course must normally be successfully repeated before subsequent fieldwork/clinical courses can be taken. If a student fails a repeat fieldwork/clinical course, the student will be required to withdraw from the program. If a student fails another separate fieldwork/clinical course, the student will be required to withdraw from the program. For further information, Occupational Therapy students refer to §174.1.

b.

A student who fails a fieldwork/clinical placement may appeal that decision. Information regarding appeal procedures is available in the fieldwork/clinical placement procedures manual.

(3)

Promotion and/or Continuation

a.

Any student failing to obtain a minimum GPA of 2.0 in any academic year will be required to withdraw from the Faculty.

b.

Students identified as second-time problem students by the Revisions Committee and referred to the Department Chair for review may also be required to withdraw.

(4)

Grade of Incomplete: Subject to the approval of the Dean, a grade of incomplete is normally used when a student is prevented by illness, domestic affliction or other extreme circumstances from completing the course requirements at the specified time. Where this grade has been given, the student must submit the assignment within 10 days after the series of final examinations scheduled for this particular course is complete, except in cases where, at the discretion of the Department Chair, the Dean grants an extension. Failure to comply with this regulation results in a grade of 0 for the portion of the course in which the grade of incomplete was given.

(5)

Time Limits for Completion of Programs: All programs must be completed within the time limits for completion set out in §203.11 of the Calendar.

(6)

Post Diploma Degree Completion: (Note: The Post Diploma BScPT completion program was discontinued effective September 1996.)

(7)

Electives: An elective course is approved if it (a) does not duplicate material covered in any compulsory course in the student's program; (b) does not duplicate material covered in the previously approved elective courses; (c) is offered when no timetable conflict exists. Permission to take courses in other universities toward meeting the elective requirements of the student's program is normally granted if these criteria are met. Credit is granted for approved off-campus courses if a grade of C (or equivalent) is obtained.

(8)

Academic and Clinical Requirements: To graduate, a student must meet the academic and clinical requirements outlined in the Calendar.

(9)

Repeating Courses

a.

Students may repeat a failed course only once.

b.

Students registered in the Faculty of Rehabilitation Medicine may not repeat any successfully completed course in their program.

c.

Students in any Faculty may not repeat for credit any successfully completed course offered by the Faculty of Rehabilitation Medicine.
