Grades

Achievement in a course is measured by meeting specific course objectives. At the beginning of a course, the instructor explains objectives and the criteria on which grades are assigned. For the following grade descriptions, "achievement" may be defined as successfully reaching a level of knowledge, understanding or competency. A satisfactory or "S" grade is a "C" or better.

Grades are issued at the end of each semester and are not mailed automatically. Students may access grades by logging into their account through www.frontrange.edu.
