Class rank is calculated by the Coordinator of Outcomes and Assessment based on the 100% scale, using actual percentages earned in each course. The course average is multiplied by the credit hours of the course, then the total is divided by the credit hours taken each semester. Ranking average is carried out to as many decimals as is necessary. If two students have identical averages, they will both hold the same rank in the class, and the request after completion of the second semester of the program.
