The final grade and the grade point in a course are based on the total aggregate of marks earned from all activities done in the course including periodicals, practical, oral, and final written exam as shown in the study plan tables. The minimum success limit for a student to pass is 60% (Except for the human rights course and university requirements, where the minimum pass rate is 50% and is not added to the student’s cumulative GPA) and the student must attain minimum 30% of the final written examination marks. Final grades for courses shall be recorded as follows:

Percentage marks Grades
≥ 95% Excellent 4.00 A+
≥ 90% -less than 95% 3.70 A
≥ 85%-less than 90% Very good 3.30 B+
≥ 80%-less than 85% 3.00 B
≥ 75%-less than 80% Good 2.70 C+
≥ 70%-less than 75% 2.30 C
≥ 65%-less than 70% Pass 2.00 D+
≥ 60%-less than 65% 1.70 D
Less than 60% Fail 1.00 F

Total grade points secured divided by the total Credit Hours taken shall be computed as Grade Point Average (GPA). A student is declared to have passed the semester examinations when he/she passes in all the courses of the semester having minimum GPA of 2.00. To obtain PharmD undergraduate degree, the student must successfully pass 179 credit hours for all areas of specializations with an average score of not less than GPA 2.00.

In addition to the above grade, the following grades may appear in the student semester transcript.

W I Work incomplete due to circumstances beyond the student’s control approved by PharmD program council. Withdrawn; a student was enrolled in a credit course and withdrew from the course before the tenth week.

WF Withdrawn failing; a student was enrolled in a credit course and withdrew from the course after the tenth week.

FW Forced withdrawal; Students who do not achieve the minimum attendance of the course sessions.

A course in which the grade F, FW or WF is received will not counted toward degree requirements. If the student fails a course (gets F grade), he should repeat the course (full attendance and performing all activities including examinations), according to the following rules:

  • The student gets the grade of the course after repeating. This grade is the recent grade and will be counted in the cumulative GPA and will be reflected in the student’s transcript.
  • The student should pay the full credit hours’ fees for the repeated course. A course in which the grade of F is received is not counted toward degree requirements until the grade F is replaced by grade A, B, C, or D. The semester GPA is the sum of all quality points (quality points of a course = course credit hours x grade points of the course) for one semester for grades A+, A, B+, B, C+, C, D+, D, WF, and F divided by the sum of all corresponding semester credit hours.

Grades IF and I are excluded from all grade-point computation. The cumulative GPA is computed similarly using all the grades received by the student.

TO CALCULATE G.P.A. FOR ONE SEMESTER:

  1. Multiply the point value of the letter grade by the number of credit hours. The result is the quality points earned.
  2. Total the credit hours for the semester.
  3. Total the quality points for the semester.
  4. Divide the total quality points by the total credit hours.
  5. The result is the G.P.A. for the semester.

TO CALCULATE CUMULATIVE G.P.A.

  1. Calculate G.P.A. for each semester.
  2. Total the credit hours from all semesters.
  3. Total the quality points from all semesters.
  4. Divide the total quality points for all semesters by the total credit hours for all semesters.
  5. The result is the cumulative G.P.A. An honorary degree is awarded to a student who has a minimum cumulative average of 3.7 in every semester of study in credit hours program. The award of the honorary degree requires that the student has not received an F in any course of study inside or outside EJUST. A student will be transferred from level 1 to level 2 after successfully completing 36 credit hours, and from level 2 to level 3 after successfully completing 70 credit hours, from level 3 to level 4 after completing 108 credit hours, and from level 4 to level 5 after successfully completing 145 credit hours.

REPETITION OF COURSES

Courses in which a student received a grade of D+, or D may be repeated. Repetition more than once requires the approval of the PharmD Program Council. If a student takes the same course more than once, all grades will appear on the student's record. The student will receive credit for the course only once which is the most recently earned grade and will be used in computing the cumulative GPA. This is used only for the first repeated 18 credit hours. In case of further repetition, after the first 18 credit hours repeated The student will receive credit for the course only once which is the most recently earned grade and will be used in computing the cumulative GPA. The student should pay a new fee of the credit hours of any repeated course.
