UofC

The official grading system of the University of Calgary is given in the Academic Regulations section of this Calendar.

The Dean's List recognizes outstanding academic performance while registered in the Haskayne School of Business. It is compiled twice yearly at the end of each of the Fall and Winter Terms. To qualify for inclusion, a Bachelor of Commerce or Bachelor of Hotel and Resort Management student must achieve a grade point average of 3.70 or better on 15 units (2.5 full-course equivalents) or more taken in either the Fall or Winter Term at the University of Calgary. Eligibility for those students registered in full-year courses spanning two terms will be determined at the end of the Winter Term. Students on academic sanction are not eligible for the Dean’s List.

Bachelor of Commerce

The notation “With Distinction” will be entered in the permanent record and on the graduation parchment of a student who successfully completes the Bachelor of Commerce program with a grade point average of at least 3.60 over the last 90 units (15 full-course equivalents) of the 120 units (20 full-course equivalents) applicable to the degree. In cases in which the “last 90” must include some but not all of a group of courses taken concurrently, the selection will be made in the manner most advantageous to the student. A student who has taken part of his/her course work at another institution may be granted a degree “With Distinction” at the discretion of the business school.

Bachelor of Hotel and Resort Management

The notation “With Distinction” will be entered in the permanent record and on the graduation parchment of a student who successfully completes the Bachelor of Hotel and Resort Management program with a grade point average of at least 3.60 over the required 60 units (10.0 full-course equivalents) post-diploma courses applicable to the degree.

Academic performance is assessed following the term in which 18 units (3.0 full-course equivalents) or more are completed by the student at the University of Calgary since the previous Haskayne appraisal. All courses taken since the previous Haskayne appraisal will be included in the next subsequent review.

If fewer than 18 units (3.0 full-course equivalents) have been completed since the previous Haskayne appraisal, the existing status is retained by the student until the next subsequent review.

For unconditional progress through the Bachelor of Commerce and Bachelor of Hotel and Resort Management programs students must earn a grade point average of no less than 2.00.

Students who earn a grade point average of less than 1.70 on 18 units (3.0 full-course equivalents) or more taken since their previous Haskayne appraisal, will be required to withdraw from the business school.

Students who earn a grade point average of at least 1.70 but less than 2.00 on 18 units (3.0 full-course equivalents) or more taken since their previous Haskayne appraisal, will be placed on probation for the next term in which they register.

Students who earn a grade point average of less than 2.00 on 18 units (3.0 full-course equivalents) or more taken since their previous Haskayne appraisal and while on probation, will be required to withdraw from the business school. Students will be removed from probation by achieving a 2.00 or better grade point average on 18 units (3.0 full-course equivalents) or more taken since they were placed on probation.

Students required to withdraw from the Haskayne School of Business for unsatisfactory academic performance must wait a minimum of 12 months from the date of withdrawal to reapply, at which time they will be considered for admission at the next admission cycle together with new transfer applicants. Re-applicants will be required to meet the transfer admission standards prior to being readmitted. Students who are readmitted after having been required to withdraw from the Haskayne School of Business will be placed on probation for the next term in which they register.

Notes:

1. Notwithstanding the above regulations, students who unsuccessfully repeat a course that is required for graduation, as outlined earlier in 3.3 Course Work, "Repetition of Courses", will be required to withdraw from the business school following the term in which the unsuccessful repetition occurred.

2. Students are referred to section F. Academic Standing in the Academic Regulations section of this Calendar for additional University regulations including the maximum number of probationary periods permitted while registered as undergraduates.
