Progression Policy for RRT to BSRC Degree
Students must maintain satisfactory standards in classroom and clinical activities to be retained and to progress in the program. Requirements are as follows:
- A minimum grade of 75 (C) is required in all respiratory courses (*except RESP 4123 ). Failure to attain a minimum grade of C in these courses will prevent the student from progressing in the program. A student who fails to achieve a grade of C in any respiratory care course may repeat the course one time. Any student who fails to achieve a grade of C in any two respiratory care courses will be dismissed and not be eligible for readmission.
- Failure to achieve a minimum grade of C when repeating a respiratory care course will result in dismissal from the program and the student may not reapply to this respiratory care program.
- The BSRC Program’s Admission Committee reserves the right to make exceptions to the above due to extenuating circumstances.
*RESP 4123 - Data Analysis is on a traditional grading scale where 70 is considered a minimum grade of C.
