3. Computation of Grade Point Averages: Grade point averages (GPA) are determined at the end of each grading period. The cumulative GPA is computed using the following formula: quality points earned divided by hours attempted. 4. Distribution of Grades: Students should share their student portal username and password with their parents, if they desire to have access to their student’s grades. Due to FERPA regulations, without written consent from the student, WOLBI is not authorized to discuss the student’s academic standing with any third parties. 5. Correction of Grades: Students have two weeks to question grades by contacting the Assistant to the Academic Dean. D. Study Hours There will be no study hour requirement for the first five weeks of the fall semester. Every five weeks, the academic office will run student GPAs. At this point, any student who has a cumulative or semester GPA above 2.5 will continue to be exempt. Those not meeting the requirement will be placed in study hours. Students in study hours will be responsible to spend a total of four hours in intentional and focused study throughout the week. Students may study wherever they like.

It will be the responsibility of the student to track their time and report it periodically. Any student who fails to report their time will be required to study in the library and sign in and out.

This policy applies to spring students as well.

D. Make-Up Work All classes missed due to any absence must be made up by viewing the class on the student portal. Students will receive an email from the Academic Assistant. Unless otherwise communicated, all work must be completed within one class day of the class missed. In the event that consecutive days of class are missed, the student has one class day for each of the class days missed. Late Submission Policy: When assignments are submitted late, there will be a 3% penalty for each day after the due date it is submitted up to 50% off the total grade. This penalty does not apply to tests/quizzes and assignments that are approved to be submitted late by the Academic Office.
