Academic Misconduct Grade (XF)
As academic misconduct devalues both the student and the institution, a grade of ‘XF’ is given to any student who is:
- found guilty of academic misconduct in a course, and
- the student is assigned a failing course grade as a result of the judicial process.
In cases of multiple academic misconduct violations and/or those that result in academic suspension or dismissal, a student may be assigned a failing course grade in one or all courses. The ‘XF’ designation is a permanent record of a failing grade that is assigned as a judicial sanction.
