The policy for Grade Requirements for Evaluation & Promotion in the FT MBA Program has now been posted on your Connect site here: myMBA Program > Academic Policies
60% is the minimum you must achieve for a passing grade in the post-IF modules & mini-modules. 60-67% is considered a low grade. Students who achieve a grade of less than 68% will receive a letter from the Grades Review Committee cautioning that they are at academic risk.
You may receive a maximum of 3.0 credits below 60% while in the MBA Program. This means that you can fail the equivalent of 3.0 credits, but cannot fail more than 3.0 credits.
Please remember that mini-modules count for 0.75 credits, and regular modules are 1.5 credits each.
You are also only allowed to have a certain number of credits in the “low grade” range of 60-67%. How many will depend on what the mix of low or failed grades is for you. The following table outlines the possible mixes:
Below 60% | 60-67% Range | |
You can remain in the program as long as you have: | No more than 3 credits | |
3 credits | No more than 4.5 credits | |
1.5 credits | No more than 6.0 credits | |
No more than 9.0 credits |
