NOVA Online proctored or major assessments are required to maintain compliance with our accreditation standards and the Higher Education Act’s identity verification requirements for online courses. College-wide, proctored or major assessments must prove identity. To accomplish this in online courses, students must show overall passing levels on the proctored or major assessments in order to pass the course.
In this online course, if your average score on all proctored or major assessments is a passing percentage of 72 percent or higher, then your grade will be calculated according to the scale in the table below. Otherwise, a final grade of F will be assigned.
Proctored assessments not taken on time will not be allowed to be made up without prior written 24-hour advanced notification and approval. Anything below a 72 is not passing.
Your final grade will be based on the following scale.
| Grade | Percent |
|---|---|
| A | 92 - 100 |
| B | 82 - 91 |
| C | 72 - 81 |
| D | 62 - 71 |
| F | 0 - 61 |
