Success Criteria at University
Définition :
The academic year is organised in 2 semesters. The progression from the first to the second semester of the same academic year is an automatic right for any student enrolled in the same course.
The progression from the first to the second year of the bachelor's degree, within the same training course, is a right if the student has acquired the first two semesters of the academic course.
Complément :
Passing from one year to another is achieved when:
The average of all educational units (UE) of the academic year is acquired,
The overall average by compensation between the marks of all units is equal to or greater than 10/20.
Fondamental :
A course can be validated by capitalisation or compensation[1]. The validation of a unit is achieved when the student reach the average. The validation of course units is also achieved by compensation:
Between the marks of the constituent elements of the same unit
Between the marks of the different units in the same academic year, weighted by coefficients.
So, the student needs to consider that in order to pass to the next year, s/he should obtain:
Module: ≥ 10 (i.e. Exam + Continuous Evaluation ≥ 10)
Unit: 10 in all modules, or compensation (i.e., module1x coefficient + Module2xcoefficient +.......≥10)
Semester: all the units (credits) or compensation between units
Year: pass both semesters
Compensation means that the student has the average of 10 with 60 credits
Old System | LMD System |
|---|---|
• student's average > 10: student moves to upward course • student's average < 10: student drops | • Student's average > 10: student moves to upward course • Student's average < 10: check number of annual credits. Here, s/he may have two 2 cases: Case 1: Number of credits ≥ 30: student has a pass to the upward semester but is bound to retake one or more courses Case 2: Number of credits < 30: student drops |
