B. The grade of “Auditing” does not contribute to the calculation of
the semester cumulative grade point average, and the number of
its credits is not counted within the number of credits required for
graduation.

C. The deadline for submitting applications to change course status
to audit status to the Deanship of Admission and Registration is
the same as the deadline for dropping one or more courses, as
specified in the academic calendar.
6. Repeating a Course:
A student is allowed to repeat any course in which he/she obtained a
grade of Above Average (C+) or lower. However, the most recent grade
will be the student’s final grade in the course, regardless of whether it
is higher or lower than the previous grade.

At the end of each semester, the academic standing of the students,
which reflects their achievement during their study at the University,
is determined and recorded in their academic transcript.
A. Good Academic Standing: To be considered in good standing, a
student must have a minimum cumulative GPA of (2.00) out of
(4.00).

B. Academic Probation: If a student’s cumulative GPA falls below
(2.00) out of (4.00), after final grades have been processed at the
end of a regular semester, the student will be placed on academic
probation.

Academic probation can be revoked if the student achieves a
cumulative GPA of no less than (2.00) out of (4.00).

a student may be required to participate in a cooperative program
that involve working in their specialty area for a training period of

plan. To qualify for enrollment in the cooperative program, the
student must meet the following conditions:

A. Have completed all the courses in their study plan, unless an
exception is approved by the College Dean if the remaining credit
