D.C. Mun. Regs. tit. 8, r. 8-A602
Academic performance by students at the School of Law shall be measured and recorded using letter grades and grade points, as follows:
In order to provide for greater flexibility in measurement of academic performance, the award of a letter grade may include the assignment of a plus ("+") to grades A, B, C, and D or minus ("-") to grades A, B, and C. The numerical equivalent of a plus grade shall be three-tenths higher than the regular grade (For example, a B+ will have a numerical equivalent of 3.3). The numerical equivalent of a minus grade shall be three-tenths lower than the regular grade (For example, a B- will have a numerical equivalent of 2.7).
Each semester, after recording of grades on the official transcripts, the Registrar shall furnish to each student a copy of his or her updated transcript and cumulative grade point average (CGPA).
If a student has not completed all of the requirements for a course by the end of the semester, the faculty member may turn in a grade of "F" or a grade of Incomplete ("I").
The completion of coursework by a student who has received a grade of Incomplete ("I") shall be at the discretion of the faculty member, subject to such policies as may be established by the faculty and the Dean. All coursework shall be completed within one (1) year.
If the faculty member has not changed an Incomplete ("I") to a final grade within one (1) year, the Registrar shall automatically change the grade to an "F."
Any grade may be corrected at any time to rectify a clerical error or other administrative mistake.
A faculty member may assign a grade of "F" to a student who accumulates more than a maximum number of unexcused absences from class or clinic, based on guidelines established by the faculty and the Dean.
