Academic Policies

Grading System

Davis Training Institute uses the following grading scale:

A: 90-100% (Excellent)
B: 80-89% (Good)
C: 70-79% (Satisfactory)
D: 60-69% (Needs Improvement)
F: Below 60% (Failing)
I: Incomplete
W: Withdrawal

A grade of “C” or better is required for successful course completion. Students receiving a grade below “C” must retake the course.

Grade Point Average (GPA)

GPA is calculated on a 4.0 scale:
A = 4.0
B = 3.0
C = 2.0
D = 1.0
F = 0.0

Students must maintain a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.0 to remain in good academic standing.

Academic Probation

Students whose GPA falls below 2.0 will be placed on academic probation and must:

  • Meet with an academic advisor
  • Develop an academic improvement plan
  • Raise their GPA to 2.0 or above within one semester

Failure to meet these requirements may result in dismissal from the program.

Withdrawal Policy

Students may withdraw from a course according to the following timeline:

  • Week 1-2: 100% tuition refund
  • Week 3-4: 50% tuition refund
  • After Week 4: No refund, grade of “W” assigned

Official withdrawal forms must be submitted to the Registrar’s Office.

Incomplete Grades

An “I” (Incomplete) grade may be assigned when a student has completed at least 75% of the coursework but cannot complete the course due to documented extenuating circumstances.

Incomplete work must be completed within 30 days of the end of the semester, or the grade automatically converts to an “F”.

Academic Integrity

Davis Training Institute expects all students to maintain the highest standards of academic integrity. Violations include:

  • Plagiarism
  • Cheating on exams or assignments
  • Falsifying records or documents
  • Unauthorized collaboration

Penalties for academic dishonesty range from assignment failure to program dismissal.
