Uniform Grading Policy

The State of South Carolina's Uniform Grading Policy guidelines will apply to classes taken during Summer Session and courses will be included on a student's transcript. Regular student attendance will be required.

S C Uniform Grading Policy and the Uniform Grading Scale

Withdrawing from a Course

Per SC Uniform Grading Policy, with the first day of enrollment in the course as the baseline, students who withdraw from a course within three days in a 45-day course, five days in a 90-day course, or ten days in a 180-day course will do so without penalty. Students who withdraw from a course after the specified time of three days in a 45-day course, five days in a 90-day course, or ten days in a 180-day course shall be assigned a WF, and the F (as a 61) will be calculated in the student’s overall grade point average.

Retaking a Course

Per SC Uniform Grading Policy, students in grades nine through twelve may retake a course at the same level of difficulty if they have earned a D or an F in that course. Students may retake the same course at the same difficulty level under the following conditions:

Only courses in which a grade of a “D” or “F” was earned may be retaken.
The course in which a grade of a “D” or “F” was earned may be retaken only during the current academic year or in the following academic year.
The student’s record and transcript will reflect ALL courses taken and the grades earned, with the following exception: Students taking a course for a unit prior to their 9th grade year may retake any such course during their 9th grade year. In this case, only the 9th grade retake grade will be used in figuring the student’s GPA and only the 9th grade attempt will show on the transcript. This rule will apply whether the grade earned is higher or lower than the pre-ninth grade attempt.

Course Levels

Core:These courses, based on state standards, are designed to fulfill the requirements to earn a SC high school diploma. (Please note: Courses in mathematics and science are offered at both the college prep and applied level.) These courses are weighted at the COLLEGE PREP level according to the SC Uniform Grading Scale for purposes of GPA and class rank.

Honors:These courses, which extend and deepen the opportunities provided by courses at the high school level, are designed for students exhibiting superior abilities in the particular content area. The honors curriculum places emphasis on critical and analytical thinking, rational decision making, and inductive and deductive reasoning. Courses within the Honors curriculum are intended to be preparation for AP courses. These courses are weighted at the HONORS level according to the SC Uniform Grading Scale for purposes of GPA and class rank.
