C+” is the minimum passing grade in both the Nursing and Dental Hygiene Program.

C*” and "C-*" grades in core Nursing, and core Dental Hygiene courses reflect that the course has not been successfully completed.

P” or "NP" are the grades issued for all Nursing Clinicals, Global Studies/Symposium, and Capstone courses (e.g. NURS 492 and NURS 493).



Each academic program has unique prerequisite requirements. Please see the specific program section for additional information.
