SUMMER PROGRAMME

Summer Evaluation

Academic Credit

While courses at CMRS are intended to form part of a student’s studies for an undergraduate or graduate degree, the final right to accept credits must remain with the home university/college. Candidates should consult their academic advisor and obtain the agreement of their Academic Dean and Registrar before submitting their application.

The academic load for undergraduates and graduates is four credits.  Work is assessed on the quality of essays and the contribution to discussion in the tutorial and integral seminar.  At the end of the programme, a transcript, reports and grades are sent to the student’s university or college.

Grades

CMRS grades are expressed in American terms to facilitate the transfer of credit. A student’s work is graded by letter (plus and minus) as follows:

A = Excellent work of consistently high quality with few weaknesses, showing notable understanding, insight and scholarly ability.

B = Good work of fine quality, showing understanding, insight and scholarly aptitude.

C = Satisfactory work that is adequate, but lacking distinction.

D = Poor work of minimal value.

F = Failing work unworthy of credit.

I = Incomplete course work at the end of term.

W = Withdrawal from a course with the approval of CMRS.

Please Note: CMRS courses are not designed to be taken on a Pass/Fail basis.
