Grade Distributions

Grade Distribution Requirements

A median grade of B is required in the following courses:

  • all required courses
  • all courses with multiple sections taught in the same academic year
  • all courses with 19 or more students

In all these courses, at least half the students will receive a grade of B or higher and at least half will receive a grade of B or lower. In determining the median, a grade of pass will be considered a B.

For purposes of the multiple-section provisions of the B median requirement, June term courses are to be grouped with courses in the preceding academic year.

When a faculty member is required to post grades before all students in a class have taken the examination, and under other similar circumstances, the B median requirement is understood to except grades that should be posted late and cannot reasonably be taken into account in calculating the median for a class.
