Online Course Grading Online course grades are based on two summative assessments (typically a final exam and final project) and three graded unit exercises (found in Units 2, 4, and 6). Summative assessments are worth 440 points each. The three graded exercises are worth 40 points each (120 points total). Course grades are calculated as follows: Assignment Point value Summative Assessment 440 (Final Exam) Summative Assessment 440 (Final Project) Unit 2 Graded Exercise 40 Unit 4 Graded Exercise 40 Unit 6 Graded Exercise 40 Total 1000 A minimum grade of D (600/1000 points or 60%) is required for an online undergraduate student to pass a course and for the course to count toward the degree. The final course grade is determined by the percentage of all points earned from graded assignments. Students who receive less than 60% (264/440 points) on either summative assessment are afforded a second attempt if time remains in the term. Second attempts on the three graded unit assignments are not permitted. The minimum Cumulative GPA (CGPA) required to earn a baccalaureate from Patten University is 2.0. For graduate students, a minimum grade of C (700/1000 points or 70%) is required to pass a course and for the course to count toward their degree. The final course grade is determined by the percentage of all points earned from graded assignments. Students who receive less than 70% (308/440 points) on either summative assessment are afforded a second attempt if time remains in the term. Second attempts on the three
