New Grading System for Postgraduates

The university will implement a new grading system for postgraduate students starting in the 2010/2011 academic year. Under the new system, students will be evaluated on a scale of A+ to F, with corresponding grade points from 4.00 to 0.00. Letter grades such as X, IC, S/US, W, P/F, and IP will also be used to indicate special circumstances like being barred from exams, an incomplete grade, satisfactory/unsatisfactory performance, withdrawal from a course, and courses still in progress.
