The following tables list the grades that are used at McAfee Institute and show how they are calculated to determine the grade point average (GPA). Compared to other respondents, a smaller proportion of respondents outside the U.S. and Canada selected the promotion of certification by co-workers, peers, or supervisors among the primary reasons for pursuing certification. However, a higher proportion of respondents outside the U.S. and Canada indicated they pursued certification to stay current in the investigative and intelligence industry.

Grading Scale:
Excellent (A, A-).
Very good (B+, B, B-).
Average (C+, C).
Poor (C-, D+, D).
Failure (F)

We also utilize the following marks as well

  • I – Incomplete
  • W – Student Withdraw
  • AU – Audit
  • P/CR/S – Passing / Credit / Satisfactory (C- or Better)
  • NC/U – No credit/Unsatisfactory
  • NG – No Grade Assigned
  • TR – Credits accepted as transfer
