Parent Orientation Booklet 2019

THINGS TO KNOW

Grades Students completing the first year will receive a Bible Certificate provided they have achieved a cumulative grade point average of at least 2.00. Those finishing with less than a 2.00 average will receive a Certificate of Attendance provided all other requirements are met. Students completing the second year will receive a Diploma, provided they have achieved a cumulative grade point average of at least 2.00. No Certificates of Attendance are given to sophomore students, although any coursework on the transcript that is a “C” or above can be transferred to another college. Grades are uploaded to the student’s online account as assignments are completed. Parents may access these grades with their student’s permission by asking the student for their login and password. A student is placed on Academic Probation if his/her grades fall below a 2.00 average. If they continue to remain low, he/she may be placed on Academic Discipline. Both of these programs are designed to provide protected study time and help for the student. The student will also be encouraged to attend a supervised study intensive which is held twice a week to help prepare students for upcoming quizzes/exams. In addition to study intensive, we offer our students the possibility of peer tutoring. Students who struggle academically should take advantage of this service. Students who achieve a 3.00 average in a given semester will be placed on the Dean’s List, and students with a 3.50-4.00 will be placed on the Dean’s Honor List. Both groups are given special privileges with regards to study hours.
