Student Related Policies and Procedures

Clause 3.5 of the Policy
Academic performance will be judged on the basis of the GPA for the final two years of the course (72 units). In the event of two or more students receiving the same GPA, the Selection Committee may select one of those students to receive the Medal on the basis of their GPA in the course as a whole. In the event that no student is considered to be of sufficient merit, the Selection Committee will recommend that no award be made.:

Non-Graded Pass Results
For the purpose of determining academic performance for the ranking of students for the Medal, the calculation of Grade Point Average will be modified as follows, to accommodate the differing purposes for which the result of non-graded pass (NGP) may be awarded in a topic undertaken by a student: a grade of NGP in a topic will not be counted in determining the GPA for the student where that topic is normally graded only on an NGP/Fail basis; but a Fail result in that topic will be counted in the same way as a Fail in a graded topic; and the equivalent of a P will be counted if an NGP has been awarded as a result of an academic supplementary.
