Amendment to Haliç University Associate and Bachelor's Degree Education Regulation
AI-generated summary for informational purposes only. Not legal advice. See the original source for the authoritative text.
This regulation amends the Haliç University Associate and Bachelor's Degree Education Regulation, originally published on September 7, 2024. The amendment introduces three key areas of change: grading thresholds, exam eligibility rules, and the letter grade scale. The passing grade threshold in Article 26 has been lowered from 'CC' to 'DD', meaning students now need a lower minimum grade to pass a course. Article 31 clarifies exam eligibility: students only need course registration to sit midterms, attendance fulfillment to sit final exams, and missing a midterm no longer bars a student from the final exam. Make-up exams are available to those who missed or failed finals, but students who failed due to absenteeism are explicitly excluded from make-up exams. Article 34 revises the minimum score requirements for grade evaluation and updates the full letter grade scale. In class-promotion units, students must score at least 50 (council/committee courses) or 60 (other courses) in finals/make-ups, with a passing grade of at least 60. In other units, the minimum exam score is 40 and passing grade is 40. The new letter grade table runs from AA (4.00 GPA, 90–100 points) down to FF (0.00 GPA, 0–39 points), with DD (1.00 GPA, 40–49 points) now constituting a passing grade.
