Required Grade Details

B Required in Core Classes

Effective for students entering Spring 2009 onwards, core classes — INFO 200, 202, 204 — have to be completed with a grade of B (88%) or higher. These three classes are the core from which the rest of the curriculum evolves. They focus on underlying philosophies. In addition INFO 200 is accepted by the University as the equivalent of its graduate writing exam.

Any student who is unable to make a B in each core class should think carefully as to whether this is the right program for them (some students will do better in a place based program) and whether this is the right degree for them.

If we see that you need to repeat a core class or classes you will be contacted by someone from our office to let you know that you have been placed on Administrative Academic Probation. You will be required to repeat the class as soon as possible.

Approximately two weeks before the end of Advanced Registration, MySJSU will allow students to enroll in a retake of a core course or elective. Check the Registrar’s Calendar for the specific date.

Note: You will be given one opportunity to repeat the class.
