prior to the registration of courses which specifies the time periods and fees for

Registrar's Office if they need information to avoid late fees. During the semester,
students will receive information regarding course offerings for the following academic
year. After consulting with academic advisors, students will submit their course

the final examination and may be subject to shortage of attendance policy if applicable.

have not been completed. Regardless of whether or not the registration prevents
a student from enrolling in a course, student will be responsible for the failure
to adhere those prerequisites.

Examination / Assessment Policy
Assessment is an integral part of a university education. Regular assessment provides
an opportunity for students to gauge their understanding of course material, for
instructors to determine what students have learned, and for the university to certify
student achievement. Students require sufficient and timely feedback from instructors
to be able to improve their performance and to make informed decisions about withdrawal,
registration in subsequent semesters, and how to allocate their time within a course.
Instructors at KASBIT have a long tradition of providing fair and accurate assessment,
free of bias based on student ethnicity, religion, gender, gender preference,
social class, disabilities, or other unrelated personal characteristics.
This Assessment Policy provides procedures for the conduct and scheduling of formal
assessments and for the reporting of grades. However, no policy can cover all eventualities.
It is understood that this Policy must be interpreted humanely and sensitively.

Grade-Point Average (GPA)
Your grade-point average, or GPA, is determined by dividing the number of grade
points earned by the number of units attempted. The number of grade points earned
for a course equals the number of grade points assigned times the number of course
units.

|
|
Cumulative Grade-Point Average (CGPA)
The CGPA is a measure of average academic performance for a collection of courses
and is not the same type of measure as a grade for one course. CGPA specifies a
good academic standing depending upon the number of academic terms completed. Graduation
requirements includes a minimum GPA 2.0 in each semester and minimum final CGPA
2.0. The summer session will be utilized for the removal of deficiencies in semester
GPA or final CGPA.
