Number of Courses Required for Graduation

V. Number of Courses Required for Graduation
The 2002-2003 academic year is the first year for the semester calendar at Hendrix. For students graduating before the semester calendar was implemented, the number of courses credits required for graduation was 36. For students graduating with all course credits earned under the semester calendar, the number of course credits for graduation is 32. For students who earn credits under both calendars, the number of course credits required for graduation is determined by the length of time a student was academically enrolled under the term calendar. The number of courses required for graduation is determined by the number of term course credits a student has on June 15, 2002 as given by the following chart:

# of Term Credits # of Credits Needed to Graduate
0-4 32
5-13 33
14-22 34
23-31 35
32-36 36

(Courses with grades of incomplete on June 15, 2002 are counted in this total as long as the incomplete grades are removed within the time limits stated by the incomplete policy.) An average of 2.00 or better must be maintained on all courses (exclusive of courses taken for credit only) counted towards the degree. Course credits earned through CLEP, AP, or IB exams may be counted toward graduation although they may not be used to satisfy specific requirements for graduation as described in other sections.
