  • A "C" grade is considered a pass.
  • When calculating the Pass GPA, the highest grade that you obtained will be considered.
  • When calculating the Class GPA, the maximum of a "C" grade is taken for the repeat course.
  • Attempts are counted starting from the initial registration year for a particular Level.
  • An attempt is counted, although you did not apply or sit or absent for the course examination.

There are only 3 attempts to complete any Level of the BIT Programme.
It means you have to complete a level within three consecutive years.

Syllabus and the Regulations of the year in which you are completing the Degree will be effective for awarding the BIT Degree for you.
Please refer to the latest Student Handbook published on the BIT website for more details.
