• Only completed courses are reported and recorded; there is no academic penalty for failure to complete the course.
• Assignments, a midcourse (college and dual-credit students only), and a final examination comprise a final course grade. If you fail the final examination, you fail the course regardless of assignment grades.
• If you pass the final examination but have a low enough assignment average, the result of the course is a failing grade.
• For TTUISD students, additional information on calculating your course grade can be found in the TTUISD Handbook.
• For elementary students, grading procedures can be found in Tab 1 of the curriculum guide.

Please allow enough time for the course to be recorded before making your request for a grade report.

Texas-certified instructors will grade CBEs, usually within five working days of arrival. A percentage of mastery score will be mailed to you and to your school. Schools use the percentage of mastery score to determine whether or not to award credit. Schools that order examinations for a number of students through our bulk CBE service will receive both grade report copies (school and student) for distribution. The minimum passing score for these examinations is determined by local district policy. Check with your school administrators to determine your school's policy.

If you withdraw from a course and return your textbooks (postmarked) within 30 calendar days after your enrollment, you will receive a 100% refund. After 30 days or after completing the course, we will purchase back our textbooks if they are still being used for the course and are in condition to be resold. Visit the online bookstore to verify that the textbooks are still being used and to obtain a buy-back price. Unless otherwise stated, we do not buy back workbooks, course guides, supplies, tapes, or videos. To guarantee delivery, books must be returned by insured parcel post or United Parcel Service (UPS). Please allow two to four weeks from our receipt of the books to process payment.

For additional information regarding textbook, prices, textbook refunds, or textbook buybacks visit the online bookstore.
