(1) Success in the courses are evaluated by the related faculty member through homework assignments, mid-terms and, final exams and papers given to the students. Principles of evaluation for the course, weight of the term papers, midterm and final exams will be announced at the beginning of the semester. Courses are evaluated within the framework of this Instruction Letter for SU Undergraduate Program. The lowest passing grade for the courses included in the grade point average(GPA) is “D”, for the courses which is not included in the grade point average (GPA) is “S”. If any grade is not given for courses which is included in grade point average (GPA) is evaluated as “F”, for the non-credit courses which is not included in the grade point average (GPA) is evaluated as “U” during the periods prescribed in the academic calendar. Any modifications to the grades are made according to Article 24. Letter grades and coefficients are shown below. Instruction Letter for Undergraduate Programs Page 7 of 15 Letter Grade Coefficient A 4.0 A- 3.7 B+ 3.3 B 3.0 B- 2.7 C+ 2.3 C 2.0 C- 1.7 D+ 1.3 D 1.0 F 0

(2) Other grades and their usage are stated as below:

a) “I” is the grade given to students, on condition that the instructor of the course approves student’s request documentary evidences, request petitions provided within 3 days of the final examination, who fulfill the course attendance requirements, but to due some reasons acceptable cannot complete the required course works or take the final exams. Student’s documentary evidences stating the request are sent to Student Resources Unit along with the written petition until the “Last day for grade submission stated in the academic calendar. “F” grade is given for the courses which is included the grade point average (GPA) , and “U” grade is given for the courses which is not included in the grade point average (GPA) in case the documents are not send to Student Resources Unit until the stated time. “A” grade should be given to student who receives “I” grade for the course by completing the required course work within the stated time determined by the faculty member or should take final exam in the announced time. If the student cannot get a passing grade at the end of these, he-she should take re-take exam on which the date is determined by the faculty member. Student Resources Unit is informed by the related Faculty about “I” grade conversion dates determined until 3 days before the course registration period for the following semester at latest. Until the time stated on the decision, “I”grade, which cannot be converted by using all exam rights, will be converted to “F” grade for the courses which is included the grade point average (GPA) , and “U” grade for the courses which is not included in the grade point average (GPA).

b) “‘P”’ grade (In progress) ““P”” grade is given to students who are progressing the courses which are not included in the grade point average (GPA).

c) “'S”' grade (Satisfactory) is given to students who are successful in the courses which are not included in the grade point average (GPA).

ç) “'U” grade (unsatisfactory) is given to students who are not successful in the courses which are not included in the grade point average (GPA).

d) “'T”' grade (Transfer) is given to students who take courses from other universities as a special student and which are considered equivalent by the Faculty Administrative Board. Courses taken by the students in special student status, during the period they are not entitled to enroll in any higher education institute, are not acceptable as equivalent.

e) “'W”' grade (Withdrawn) 'W' (withdrawn) grade is given for courses from which the students are allowed to withdraw within the dates stated in the academic calendar and until the last workday of the Instruction Letter for Undergraduate Programs Page 8 of 15 tenth week for fall and spring terms starting from the beginning of the courses upon the recommendation of the faculty member and the advisor.

Students cannot withdraw from the courses they repeat (including the courses graded with W ) or the courses they are registered in summer term.

f) “'NA”' (Not attended) grade is given to students who do not fulfill the attendance requirements of a course. “'NA”' grade is considered as an “'F”' grade for the courses which are included in the grade point average ( GPA) and “'U”' grade for the courses which are not included in the grade point average (GPA) in the calculation of grade point averages.

g) “'P”', “'S”', “'U”', “'T”' and 'W' grades are not taken into account in the calculation of grade point average.

In order to monitor the quality of higher education programs;
