Country Grading Scales

Hi Students,
As mentioned during orientation, part of academic success abroad happens when we understand and adapt to the host culture's grading structure and expectations. Before you write your first paper, please meet with a research librarian who can show you just how to properly cite sources and draft your essays.
The grading scales below are extracted from the International Student Exchange Program (ISEP), but should remain fairly similar across programs. A smart move is attaining your country's grading scale from the International Office during your in-country orientation program. Please remember that grades do transfer back, for better or worse, so plan ahead, know faculty expectations, and set your sights on having an excellent academic journey abroad.
Good luck,
Tiffany
