Grading Scale and Quality Points 

Calculations are based on a standardization of academic course levels, grading scales, and the weighting of course grades.  Class rank is based on a weighted grade point average in which a single (1) quality point is added to passing grades earned in Advanced/ Honors courses and two (2) quality points are added to passing grades earned in Advanced Placement courses. 

Grading Scale:  Harnett County Schools’ students in grades 3-12 will be graded on a ten-point grading scale as follows:

90-100% = A           
80-89% = B                         
70-79% = C
60-69% = D
<59 = F

Transcript:  Transcript grades and the corresponding number of quality points are shown below.

90-100 = 4.0
80-89 = 3.0
70-79 = 2.0
60-69 = 1.0
<59 = 0.0

Individual constituent institutions may require other courses in addition to the minimum requirements.  For some students and students who graduated from high school prior to 1990, special considerations have been made.  "Course units" as defined in these requirements may include those high school-level courses taken and passed by an applicant after graduating from high school, as well as those taken while enrolled as a high school student.  For some transfer students and students who graduated from high school prior to 1990, special considerations have been made.
