Grading Policies
The student's academic performance is assessed according to four different criteria: exams, assignments, attendance, and class participation. Korea University¡¯s academic regulations state that class attendance of at least 70 percent is required to earn a passing grade. Each professor, however, may prefer a different attendance policy, and in such case, students should follow the professor¡¯s guidelines. Generally, course performance is graded on the following 100-point scale:

95-100 A+ 90-94 A
85-89 B+ 80-84 B
75-79 C+ 70-74 C
65-69 D+ 60-64 D
59-0 F

Grading is professors¡¯ authority and privilege, that ISC cannot interfere with.


Credit Transfer
Students who wish to transfer KU ISC program credits are advised to consult with the appropriate academic authorities at their home institution in advance, whether or not the home institutions are KU's exchange partners. The home institution's academic advisors decide whether a particular ISC course may be applied towards the major or elective requirement. Students usually refer to the uploaded syllabus on our ISC course website to determine credit transferability to their home institution.
